Perpetual’s Matthew Sherwood says the Australian sharemarket could retreat in September 2016, noting that valuations and the outlook for earnings are high at present. The monetary policy meetings of central banks in the US, Japan and Europe will also be a focus for investors. Sharemarkets also often fall in September, as US traders return from the summer break. Michael Gable of Fairmont Equities says the S&P/ASX 200 could test the 5,200-point level in the near-term.
