In this quick bite, Infometrics Chief Executive Brad Olsen explains why market reactions in 2025 feel different. Despite wild volatility, geopolitical conflict, and patchy economic data, investors aren’t flinching like they used to. We explore why dips aren’t sparking panic, how business sentiment in Aotearoa is shifting, and why job ads staying flat could be more telling than official employment figures. This quick bite is from our previous episode 'Is economic recovery stalling'.

It has been another directionless session for the Aussie market but the week ahead may offer some direction. Laura and Stevie unpack the session which has remained mostly flat and reflect on 14 days of similar performance. Trump’s tariff plans continue to contribute to investor unease, South32 has dragged on the commodity space, and international trade data out of China showed an increase in imports. DroneShield continued to surge, The Reject Shop paid a dividend following the recently approved takeover, and Bitcoin hit a new record high.

It has been a quiet day for the Aussie market, but some rare earth stocks have been standouts. Stevie is solo to reflect on the session which has seen very little movement as the market danced around a record high. Stevie discusses the week which may have led to this cautious sentiment with rates remaining on hold, and Trump continuing to make tariff headlines. Only the mining sector saw gains locally today and so he unpacks the catalyst behind this, talks through the best and worst performers with HMC Capital losing ground, and he looks to the week ahead.

In this episode of the Mo Money podcast, we're talking about inheritances, tax on inheritances, and how you can invest that money. Now we're in the middle of a three and a half trillion dollar intergenerational wealth transfer from the Boomers down to the generations below, so in this episode we're unpacking how inheritance tax really works in Australia, even though they say that there's none. There actually is, as well as how you can protect the family wealth across different generations, and a little bit on how you can be talking to your parents about this stuff without it turning into a disaster. So this one, I think, is perfect for anyone that's expecting to receive an inheritance or planning to leave one.    Want to make smarter money moves and get ahead faster?  Upcoming events: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/o/ben-nash-pivot-wealth-34379655697 Learn more about Pivot Wealth: https://pivotwealth.com.au/ Check out Ben's book, Get Unstuck: https://www.getunstuckbook.com.au/   Check us out on socials:    TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bentalksmoney Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pivotwealth/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BenNashPivot Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pivotwealth/ Chat about how Pivot Wealth can help with your money: https://calendly.com/pivot-new-clients/intro-chat-w-pivot-wealth   Note: The advice shared on this podcast is general in nature and does not consider your individual circumstances.

Across the Atlantic, the UK’s FTSE also hit record highs, driven by strength in mining stocks.

If our economy is in recovery, why is the supermarket checkout still so brutal? Listen in on our chat with Brad Olsen, Principal Economist at Infometrics. Brad breaks down why New Zealanders are still facing uncomfortable inflation, despite a gradual economic comeback—and why attractive interest rates aren’t luring buyers into the housing market. Are investors becoming ‘numb’ to world events after years of outlandish headlines? What’s the latest on those infamous tariffs? Why do the US markets seem "unkillable" despite dire predictions? Plus, Brad says Kiwi investors have started actively scrutinizing boards and executive strategies, and increasingly turning to emerging alternative sectors like AI and crypto.

Wall Street surged as trade concerns eased, with the tech sector—particularly the Nasdaq—leading the gains. Nvidia made headlines by becoming the first company to reach a $4 trillion US valuation, while renewable energy firm AES also saw a sharp stock jump amid takeover interest. However, geopolitical tensions persist, with President Trump unveiling a fresh round of tariffs targeting countries from Iraq to the Philippines. Meanwhile, minutes from the latest Federal Reserve meeting revealed a divided committee on inflation and the future path of interest rates. Back home, Aussie shares are expected to edge higher on Thursday, supported by rising energy prices.

Tariffs continue to lead the conversation today as Laura and Stevie unpack the worst day for the Aussie market in around 9 weeks. Despite being the worst day, the market has once again not moved much, Trump has discussed a 50% tariff on copper which has seen copper stocks and gold prices take a hit, and he has continued to discuss tariffs on pharmaceuticals. Property stocks have taken a hit amid the recent interest rate hold decision, and Laura and Stevie look to the day ahead.

If you’ve spent five minutes on TikTok lately (okay, five hours), you’ve probably stumbled on the “most unhinged hack” trend... people sharing their weirdest, wildest ways to solve life’s problems. And when one clever member of our She’s On The Money community asked for the most unhinged ways to stop unnecessary spending, and you guys well and truely delivered. These hacks might sound chaotic, but don’t be fooled. Underneath the chaos is a heap of helpful, psychology-backed, behaviour-breaking brilliance. Because sometimes a budget just isn’t enough. Sometimes you need a strategy that’s equal parts unhinged and actually effective. In this ep you'll find:

The market has dropped slightly today but the drops could have been more significant with the expected rate cut not coming to fruition. Laura and Stevie discuss the shock decision, and the upcoming things to watch that could speak to a cut in August. Tariff discussions continue to keep markets on edge, the sectors had mixed performance with consumer staples taking the biggest hit, and they look to the day ahead.

Wall Street stalled overnight amid a lack of investor conviction, with banks leading the declines as HSBC adopted a more cautious stance. US Treasury yields fell for a fifth straight session, while copper posted its best day since 1989 after President Trump vowed not to extend tariffs and toughened his stance on copper and drug imports. In company news, Moderna was the top performer on the S&P 500, surging 8.8%, while Amazon Prime Day spending remains in focus. Back home, Aussie shares are set to open lower on Wednesday after the RBA surprised markets with its latest decision.

Laura is back with Stevie today and kicks things off with some controversy discussing Trump’s tariff deadline not coming to fruition. They unpack how this has and could move markets going forward, and address discussions of further tariffs. A lift in expected oil production failed to have a dramatic impact on the energy sector, they address the moves across the other sectors with financials losing some ground and look at what to expect in the days ahead as the US market comes back online and the RBA interest rate decision looms.

Wall Street pulled back from record highs as fresh trade concerns rattle investors. President Trump has announced steep tariffs on five countries, set to take effect from August 1st, sparking widespread market unease. Meanwhile, Tesla shed $68 billion in market value after CEO Elon Musk’s political ambitions unsettled investors. In contrast, European markets saw gains, buoyed by strength in banking and technology stocks. In commodities, oil prices climbed on hopes of strong U.S. demand, while gold trimmed earlier losses after the announcement of new tariffs. Back home, Aussie shares are expected to fall on Tuesday, ahead of the RBA’s policy decision.

It was a subdued end to the week for U.S. markets, with Wall Street closed on Friday for Independence Day. Across the Atlantic, European stocks finished lower amid ongoing trade uncertainty.

There was a steady stream of data this week headlined by retail trade and the ABS Monthly Household Spending Indicator. The data was broadly mixed but taken in totality, the Australian consumer remains subdued. Elsewhere, home prices increased again in June and there was a rebound in building approvals. In this week's podcast, economists Belinda Allen and Harry Ottley talk through this data and preview the RBA policy meeting next week.    Disclaimer:   Important Information   This podcast is approved and distributed by Global Economic & Markets Research (“GEMR”), a business division of the Commonwealth Bank of Australia ABN 48 123 123 124 AFSL 234945 (“the Bank”).  Before listening to this podcast, you are advised to read the full GEMR disclaimers, which can be found at www.commbankresearch.com.au.   No Reliance  This podcast is not investment research and nor does it purport to make any recommendations.

It has been another quiet session, but the market continues to hold its place near the record high. Steve reflects on what has been 8 sessions of minimal movement for the Aussie market, but despite this it is the best week in two weeks and discusses the data and events that may have influenced this stagnancy. Profit taking was noticeable within the mining sector, and the consumer discretionary space saw some gains. Cleanaway attracted attention today as did Silk Logistics.

In this episode of the Mo Money podcast, we're talking about AI and its impact on investing and wealth, and partly in the context of the impact on jobs and job security, but in a big part around people's ability to build their investments. And for me, this is something that I'm seeing is really, really urgent at the moment.  So, particularly in a world where your income isn't as safe as you think, we wanted to talk about what you should be doing now to make sure that your money is set up so that you're going to be good through this age of technology - wherever that ends up going. So, I think this is critical listening for anyone that wants to make sure that they don't get caught out by all the advances in technology that we're seeing today.   Want to make smarter money moves and get ahead faster?  Upcoming events: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/o/ben-nash-pivot-wealth-34379655697 Learn more about Pivot Wealth: https://pivotwealth.com.au/ Check out Ben's book, Get Unstuck: https://www.getunstuckbook.com.au/   Check us out on socials:    TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bentalksmoney Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pivotwealth/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BenNashPivot Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pivotwealth/ Chat about how Pivot Wealth can help with your money: https://calendly.com/pivot-new-clients/intro-chat-w-pivot-wealth   Note: The advice shared on this podcast is general in nature and does not consider your individual circumstances.

Wall Street surged to new record highs as growth concerns faded, with tech shares leading the gains on the S&P 500. A surprise in US jobs data sent bond yields lower, prompting traders to scrap bets on a July rate cut. Meanwhile, optimism around the Trump tax bill helped avert a looming debt crisis. In corporate news, Nvidia’s market cap is approaching $4 trillion USD, underscoring the tech sector’s momentum. Elsewhere, iron ore prices climbed to a one-month high as China intensified efforts to curb industrial overcapacity. Back home, Aussie shares are on track to end the week at record highs.

Following a record high yesterday the market has paused for breath again today. Steve reflects on a week which has ultimately continued to tread water as he discusses what investors could be watching as a catalyst for how markets move. The local market today has seen the banks drop and mining stocks take on this difference. Oil prices have continued to rise as have gold prices, and insurance stocks are among the underperformers. Steve looks ahead with the key update on US jobs growth imminent amid the shortened week of trade for the US.

Get a closer look at billion-dollar agritech trailblazer Halter. We’re talking to Andrew Fraser, President, about the innovative cow collar system helping farmers get more from their land and livestock. Discover how this homegrown solution has improved pasture management and herd welfare across NZ, Australia, and the US—and won serious private investment capital. Andrew discusses Halter's recent $165 million Series D funding round, led by VC firm Bond. We get into their strategy for the vast US market, focusing on pasture-based beef farms, and how their technology stands up across different climates and geographies. And hear about Halter's integration with Fonterra milk production data, directly linking farmers’ daily actions to output and revenue. Plus, Andrew’s claims that Halter is helping to attract a new generation to farming—and even winning over a 93-year-old in the process.

Wall Street climbed to fresh record highs, with the S&P 500 and NASDAQ lifted by renewed trade optimism. Nike shares surged on signs of progress in US–Vietnam trade talks, while Tesla shares rose despite a 14% drop in vehicle deliveries. Meanwhile, energy stocks gained ground as oil prices rebounded, and miners found support from encouraging Chinese economic data. In contrast, UK markets experienced a sharp sell-off reminiscent of 2022, driven by renewed concerns over the country's fiscal outlook. Back home, Aussie shares are expected to ease from record highs on Thursday.

It is the best day of the week for the Aussie market as the ASX is on the cusp of cracking a fresh record high following 5 days of very little movement. Stevie unpacks the session which has seen some enthusiasm returning to markets, discusses the US tax bill which made it through the senate overnight, and looks at the local sectors with gains almost across the board. Oil prices pushed energy stocks higher, investment managers were among the best performers today, and Dominos was among the worst.

Whether you’re deep in your investing era or just market-curious, this one’s all about making investing feel less intimidating, and way more empowering. Here’s what we cover:

It has been a decent start to the new financial year for the Aussie market with the ASX managing gains through the session which ultimately relaxed as the day went on. Steve reflects on the financial year to deep dive on the best and worst performers across the 12-month window, unpacks how the sectors performed with materials, industrials, healthcare and the telcos seeing declines, and he calls out the standout stocks including Insignia Financial and MesoBlast.

Wall Street consolidated overnight as investors weighed the potential impact of the so-called 'big beautiful bill' on the U.S. deficit. Economic data added pressure, pushing interest rate expectations higher. Big tech stocks came under pressure, with Nvidia down 3%, as investors rotated into small caps. Meanwhile, Tesla shares slumped as markets braced for a sharp decline in upcoming sales figures, while Macau’s gambling revenue surged 19% year-on-year. Despite recent gains, the U.S. dollar remains near a three-year low, reflecting ongoing uncertainty around fiscal policy. Back home, Aussie shares are poised to open with modest gains on Wednesday.

Velkommen til endnu en episode i sagaen om r8Dio - som jo i den grad er hele Danmarks snakke-, sludre- og taleradio. Det er en spændende dag i Skuldborg. Ikke nok med at kulturkongen Klavs Bundgaard og smørstemmen Allan Sindberg på opfordring af B.Y.D.
