Most of us are familiar with the ever-changing landscape of communications technology. Starting from the basic cellular phone in the late 20th century, the advent of the Information Age as we call it has seen us evolve into where we are today, this is the age of the hyper-connected consumer, demanding evermore convenience and consuming exponential levels of data.
Robert Swift highlights one of his favourite stocks at the moment, one that he thinks might just be better than Facebook. We prefer to pay less for future earnings and dividends.

In the lead up to Brexit Robert Swift, head of the TAMIM Global Equity High Conviction Individually Managed Account (IMA), took the view that one could effectively immunise a portfolio from the effects of potentially massive global economic events like Brexit or the upcoming US Election.

This is far more reasonable compared with the dividend overpaying of Australian banks where the average payout ratio is around 78%.
