She's On The Money The Investing Trends That Defined 2025 (And What They Mean For You)
If you’ve been trying to make sense of what’s actually going on in the share market right now… this is your cheat sheet.
In this week’s Deep Dive, we’re getting into the investing trends that defined 2025. Where the money actually went, what investors were prioritising, and what it all says about how people were really feeling about their finances last year.
We’re talking:
- The ETF boom (and why everyone and their group chat is suddenly investing in them)
- The shift from “growth at all costs” to diversification, income and a little bit of caution
- What’s actually going on when people start moving into bonds, debt funds and so-called “defensive” assets
- The industries that quietly (and not so quietly) delivered huge returns… hello mining and precious metals
- And the standout stocks that had everyone talking, including one Aussie company that shot up over 300%
We also break it all down in plain English. No jargon, no gatekeeping, just a clear look at what’s changed and why it matters for you.
Because while it’s fun to look at the 300% and 500% returns (we love a bit of investing gossip), the real story of 2025 isn’t about picking the next winner. It’s about building something that can actually survive whatever comes next.
If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re “doing investing right”… or just want to understand what everyone else seems to be talking about, this one’s for you.
