Key points raised are:

• 2021 was again dominated by the coronavirus pandemic, along with concern about higher inflation and monetary tightening. 
• But shares unlisted assets and balanced growth super funds saw strong returns
• Continuing solid economic growth, rising profits and still easy monetary conditions should result in good overall investment returns in 2022, but they are likely to be more constrained and volatile than in 2021
• The main things to keep an eye on are 
  • Coronavirus
  • Inflation
  • US politics
  • China tensions
  • A possible Russian invasion of Ukraine
  • Inflation
  • The Australian election
