10k Words Equitable Investors November 2022 There hasn't been a year quite like this one for investment markets - just look at where @darioperkins plots 2022's returns. While we are sticking with that theme, CNBC tallies $US3 trillion in lost market cap from just seven companies in one year. As a valuation check, Amazon is now trading well below its long-term average EV/EBITDA multiple - while Apple remains above its own. With the "M2" measure of money supply in the US plunging the most on record in a six month period, as highlighted by @CharlieBillelo, Morgan Stanley chartered the historical correlation between M2 and inflation; and True Insights looked at the correlation with stock valuations. An exploration of the pre-and-post COVID worlds has us looking at Australian temporary visas through Grattan Institute's chart, student arrivals in Australia via Pac Partners and finally, a significant shift in communter preferences that suits toll road operator Transurban just fine.
