Wealth Within senior analyst Fil Tortevski and analyst Pedro Banales have taken a bit of a different tact in their HotCopper Hot “Stock” pick this week, pointing out that the Australian Dollar may be a viable investment chance.

“What has been happening globally is going to weigh here,” Mr Tortevski said.

“It’s not about digging your head in the sand and saying ‘it’s all over Red Rover.’ Instead, these market crashes can give us some of the best chances to trade.”

Mr Banales added: “Definitely would want a break before doing anything.”

In another wider thematic pick this week Mr Tortevski and Mr Banales agreed the ASX 200 index (ASX:XJO) could be a safe investment – but that any jump in would need to be heaped with a decent level of caution.

Finally, the duo dubbed BitCoin (BTC) the “Avoid” pick for Week 15.

This show comes in the lead-up to Wealth Within’s live YouTube show tonight at 7pm AEDT.
