The Nasdaq 100, made up of the world\u2019s best and brightest technology companies, is down 17% in that same period. Popular stocks like Tesla, Peloton, and Nvidia are down even more than that. Inflation is at multi-decade highs, and interest rates are expected to keep rising into 2023.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-verse\"><strong>In partnership with Urban List, we're giving away a A$5,000 cash credit to invest with Syfe. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theurbanlist.com\/competitions\/syfe-cash-credit-competition\">Click here to learn more.<\/a><\/strong><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>While the above is all relatively easy to measure &#8211; just check any stock chart &#8211; what\u2019s more difficult to understand is how everyday investors are feeling about the current investment environment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So how are Australian investors actually feeling about all this?<\/strong> <strong>We unpack that in more detail below&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ONE\"><strong>1.

Part of the reason behind this might be uniquely Australian. For example, Australian inflation levels are significantly lower when compared to other developed countries like the US or the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In line with that, only 7% of investors we surveyed said they would actually sell their investments due to current market conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That compares to 58% of investors who said they remain confident that they will meet their long term investment goals &#8211; despite current market volatility.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, over the short-term, while share prices might be volatile due to events like elevated inflation and rising rates, over the long-term, shares in quality companies have proven to be a highly dependable way to build wealth. Between 1957 to 2021, for example, the S&amp;P 500 &#8211; which tracks some of the largest 500 US companies &#8211; delivered annualised average returns of 10.5%.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"TWO\"><strong>2.

But ownership across emerging asset classes like crypto, is also surprisingly high. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, ASX shares were held by 61% of the investors we surveyed, followed by cryptocurrencies (like Bitcoin or Dogecoin) at 41%, exchange traded funds (ETFs) at 35%, and international shares (like US shares) at 27%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Untapped opportunities<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When we looked at what Australian investors were potentially considering investing in over the short- to medium-term &#8211; that\u2019s where things got interesting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only did interest in domestic shares decrease &#8211; 55% of those we surveyed said they were thinking about investing in ASX shares &#8211; but interest in international shares, think Tesla, Amazon, and Apple, rose.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, 37% said they were considering investing in international shares, like US shares, in the next one to five years. That\u2019s around 10% ahead of the current levels of international share ownership, plus the rise of crypto investing in Australia, suggests that Australian investors are looking for new ways to invest their money.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The rise and rise of crypto<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For an asset class that first came into existence in 2009, the shift in interest towards crypto might accurately be described as miraculous. According to our research and as we said above, 41% of the 1,000 investors we surveyed already have crypto investments, making it more popular than the likes of ETFs and investment property. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking forward, interest in crypto looks set to decline somewhat: 34% said they were considering investing in crypto, like bitcoin, in the next one to five years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe most interestingly however was the changing role of crypto. Many have argued that one of crypto\u2019s key benefits is that its performance is not correlated to other traditional asset classes like stocks or bonds. Related to that point, our survey found that a little over 10% of respondents view crypto as a diversification tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"THREE\"><strong>3.

Like Warren Buffett, Australian investors tend to view investing in decades, not days, with 24% of those we surveyed describing their main investment goal as \u2018building wealth for the long term\u2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In line with that long-term focus, 39% described their main investment goal as \u2018achieving financial security to protect themselves against unexpected events\u2019 and 50% said they &#8216;still expect to achieve their main investment goal within 10 years&#8217; &#8211; despite the current levels of elevated market volatility we are seeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"FOUR\"><strong>4.

But despite leaning on their instincts, they do want access to high-quality financial resources. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Illustrating that point, an overwhelming 61% said they only feel confident investing in markets and assets that they fully understand, suggesting that Australian investors might not have access to all the educational materials they need to feel confident participating in financial markets.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, while 50% of respondents said they relied on self-directed research when making investment decisions, this contrasted to a significant 31% of investors who said they relied on their instincts when making investment decisions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For love and friendships we say follow your heart. But for investing, relying solely on your instincts can objectively hurt your investment returns. In fact, a 2018 study published in the Journal of Financial Planning found that investors who were able to overcome their instincts, that is, remove emotion from their investment decision making process &#8211; saw the returns of their portfolio boosted by 23%, over a 10-year period.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"FIVE\"><strong>5.
