Yesterday morning, I joined Paul Turton on ABC Newcastle to discuss U. S. President Trump’s newly imposed tariffs – 25 per cent on Mexico and Canada, 10 per cent on China, and their impact on inflation, interest rates, and global markets.
In my latest article for Firstlinks, I unpack a fundamental question: why do investors react differently to market fluctuations when they own a listed company versus a private business? If a private enterprise consistently grows its profits, owners dismiss lowball offers. Yet in public markets, investors often panic over short-term price movements, even when the business is thriving.
This morning, I joined Sean Aylmer on the Fear and Greed podcast to discuss the latest market turmoil triggered by Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) company, DeepSeek. We explored how DeepSeek’s development of a low-cost large language model has raised questions about AI’s competitive landscape, leading to a historic US$589 billion wipeout in Nvidia’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) market capitalisation.
In yesterday’s interview on Statewide Drive with Jess McGuire, I discussed how 2025 is shaping up for investment markets. As we approached the U. S. presidential inauguration, global markets performed strongly, with the S&P 500 up 3 per cent and tech stocks, predominantly led by the ‘Magnificent 7,’ also showing gains.
I joined Ausbiz to discuss the 2025 market landscape, exploring themes like whether the return of President Trump is driving market sentiment. I highlighted the disparity between the US’s GDP and its global market capitalisation, attributing it to sentiment around big-cap stocks like the “Magnificent Seven.
I sat down with Paul Turton to discuss what’s been happening in investment markets so far this year. They talked about the impact of President Trump’s inauguration on markets and the continued strong performance of the Magnificent 7 Technology stocks.
I appeared on Ausbiz to review 2024 and talk about the outlook for 2025. Will the Magnificent Seven tech stocks continue their upward climb in 2025? Rising U. S. bond yields could potentially impact some of the share price returns of tech stocks in the U. S. market.
Last year, the S&P/ASX 200 Index, along with many of its largest companies, reached multiple record highs. This raises the question – is the market now overvalued? And if so, is a correction imminent? I joined Sean Aylmer on the Fear + Greed podcast to explore these questions.
In this Livewire article, I highlight key factors for investors to watch in 2025. The rise in tech stocks, including the Magnificent Seven, is driven by share price momentum fuelled by disinflation and economic growth, rather than strong fundamentals.
I joined Sean Aylmer on the Fear + Greed podcast to discuss one of the current key themes for markets – artificial intelligence (AI). AI is shaping the world and transforming industries including healthcare and transportation but there are always winners and losers. So which companies are thriving and which are most at risk?
In this article for Firstlinks I discussed whether 2025 will be another bullish year for equities. Despite warnings of an imminent market correction, the rally in equities, particularly driven by the Magnificent Seven tech giants, persists, supported by positive economic growth and moderating inflation.
