Not all index funds are built the same.

SpaceX's listing highlighted an important investing lesson: the way an index is constructed can influence the exposure investors receive.

Different index providers can apply different inclusion rules and methodologies. That's why index selection matters.

At 1nvest, we apply deep index expertise when selecting the indices our ETFs track, helping investors access transparent, rules-based exposure designed to meet different investment needs.

Same but different: not all index funds are created equal.

You'd think two funds tracking the same market, in the same type of wrapper, listed on the same exchange, would behave the same way. They don't because the benchmarks behind them are built differently. The most common approach, market-cap weighting, gives the largest companies the most influence. Equal weighting takes the opposite view, giving

Every constituent receives the same allocation and rebalancing naturally as prices move. Same market, different benchmark, different result.

When your financial advisor or an investment writer refers to portfolio theory, they’re in essence talking about diversification. This investment strategy involves building a portfolio of different types of assets – shares, bonds, commodities – and combining them in a way that maximises the overall return within an acceptable level of risk.

Market volatility is testing investor resolve. The evidence for staying invested remains compelling.

Historically, analysis shows that missing just the 10 best trading days over 20 years can reduce returns by more than half. Those best days frequently occur shortly after the worst days.

This isn’t about ignoring risk – it’s about understanding that consistent participation tends to outperform attempts at market timing.

A sound strategy: diversify appropriately, invest regularly, and maintain discipline during volatility.

In a high-paced investing world, nobody has time for slow growth. But what about slower growth?

China’s record-breaking expansion might be slower than it was during its highs of recent years. That doesn’t make it slow. Even at its medium-term forecast of 4% to 5% GDP growth, Beijing can boast speeds far higher than the global average.

This means there are good reasons for South African investors to look east. We discussed this with Senior Economist at Stanlib Asset Management Ndi Netsh*tenzhe.

With South African inflation around 6%, bonds merit attention in the current environment.

Government bonds are offering yields between 10-12%, providing real returns with considerably less volatility than equities.

The strategic role of bonds:
- Inflation protection through fixed income
- Portfolio stabilisation during equity volatility
- Predictable returns for goal-based planning
- Genuine diversification benefits

For balanced portfolios, bonds provide essential stability alongside growth assets.

“Compounding has a snowball effect,” says investor Naved Abdali. “It is just a tiny ball of snow at the very start, but it can turn into an avalanche over time.”

The metaphor is even more appropriate when applied to a tiny cup of coffee a day. In our Insights article, we explain how banking the cash equivalent of a coffee a day and investing it can turn a cappuccino into a college fund over time. Read more here: https://bit.ly/4buh0rY
