From www.moneymag.com.au: Investors should focus on portfolio diversification to navigate upcoming market challenges influenced by factors such as interest rate changes and global policy shifts.

Australian shares have shown positive growth, but rates remain a critical concern, while international equities may experience volatility due to new regulations and geopolitical themes.

Fixed income, gold, and cryptocurrencies also present unique opportunities, with gold prices expected to rise and cryptocurrency gaining increased political support in Australia.
