The Australian sharemarket has been trading within a range of 4,900 to 5,200 points in recent months. However, VISIS Private Wealth’s Chris Smith argues that investors should be focusing on the outlook for the market in the next 3-5 years, rather than its short-term performance. Smith says the nation’s four major banks should achieve good returns over the longer-term, while he is also upbeat about the long-term outlook for the residential and commercial property markets.
