Outgoing Murray Income Trust chair, Peter Tait, believes the investment trust industry should do more to reach younger investors.
My Gen Z daughter recently asked ChatGPT how she should invest her savings. The AI chatbot told her she should buy shares in the ‘Magnificent Seven’ stocks (namely Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta Platforms, Microsoft, Nvidia and Tesla).
She was amused to share this, anticipating my horror at the revelation. She assured me the exercise was just for fun. Having spent many years working in the investment trust sector, though, I can’t pretend I’m not concerned.
