As market players are aware, broader Australian markets are generally affected by the overall health of global economy as well as by the movement of global stock markets. A rise in economic uncertainties have the potential to disrupt the performance of Australian equities and Australian investors might decide to sell their equity holdings and deploy their investable capital towards safer asset classes. Generally, in the event of economic downturn, investors decide to make deployments towards safer assets rather than in risky ones.
