Patience is your super’s superpower

Kirby Rappell from SuperRatings states that Australian super funds finish the financial year with an estimated 9.1% return for balanced options, despite periods of volatility and geopolitical tension. Rappell views international shares as the key driver, with technology and AI‑exposed names leading performance. In contrast, infrastructure and private equity are seen as more muted, while Australian shares significantly lag global markets, with the ASX 200 returning about 3% (around 6% including dividends) over the year.
