After three years of rising markets, Fidelity’s Tom Stevenson is optimistic but cautiously so. While the bull market is clearly long in the tooth, it feels like it has further to go.

Here, Tom offers his insights into the global economy and emphasises the enduring importance of diversification.

The value of investments and the income from them, can go down as well as up, so clients may get back less than they invest.
