A survey by Investment Trends has found that the average investor expects the Australian sharemarket to gain just 1.2 per cent in 2016. However, Recep Peker of Investment Trends notes that 33 per cent of investors still intend to invest in equities. The survey also shows that 70 per cent of respondents have identified the outlook for the Chinese economy as their biggest concern, while the potential for another global financial crisis or market crash was cited by 54 per cent.
