Join us in this week\'s podcast as Nucleus Wealth\'s Chief Investment Officer Damien Klassen and Head of Advice Samuel Kerr revisit the tense relations with our largest trading partner.\\n\\nPrime Minister Albanese is in China this week.\\nThe Australia-China trade relationship has been fraught with tension, stemming from a complex interplay of geopolitical rivalry, human rights concerns, and security issues.\\nAustralia\'s push for an inquiry into the origins of COVID-19 and its outspoken criticism of China\'s actions in Hong Kong and Xinjiang led to diplomatic strains, with China retaliating by imposing tariffs and import restrictions on key Australian exports like barley, wine, and beef.\\nFurthermore, China\'s increasing assertiveness in the South China Sea and its economic coercion tactics have triggered a defensive response from Australia, leading to calls for diversification of trade partnerships and a reevaluation of reliance on the Chinese market.\\nThe once mutually beneficial economic ties now face the challenges of trust deficit and ideological clashes, complicating the prospects of smooth trade relations.\\n

Responsible Investing DisclaimerNucleus Wealth offers all investors the option to tailor their investment portfolios according to the investor\\u2019s own brand of personal ethics. While Nucleus Wealth maintains ethical standards of integrity, honesty and reliability, it does not seek to impose these on its investors. Rather, Nucleus Wealth offers investors a system of investment that incorporates three core strategies: (i) customisable; (ii) transparent; and (iii) safe. Within this, investors are given the ability to customise their investments insofar as it aligns with their ethical preferences, rather than that of the fund manager, by using screens and tilts. Once the investor\\u2019s portfolio has been adjusted, Nucleus Wealth provides the investor with a company profile, access to performance dashboards and detailed monthly performance reports of each company within the investor\\u2019s portfolio to further inform the investor on their investment decision and the company\\u2019s ethical standing as it aligns with the screens and tilts opted for. Nucleus Wealth utilises a number of domestic and international sources to identify whether companies from particular countries or sectors fall within the categories of screens and tilts which the investor may choose to apply. While Nucleus Wealth undertakes its own fundamental analysis on each company, there is also the risk that investors could reach a different conclusion to Nucleus Wealth on whether a company falls within the frame of responsible filters being applied.
