It's cold, the markets are weird, and the boys are back. Cameron and Tony kick things off with oil-patch whiplash, Iran–Israel theatre, and Trump's “Mission Accomplished 2.0” tweet-storms. Portfolio numbers, confession-season land-mines, and sudden 30 % face-plants (looking at you, **AMI**) follow. Tony spotlights surprise winners (**OML**, **SHA**, **SRG**, **GNG**) and takeover bait (**STO**, **THL**), while ASX cops an ASIC probe for dropping the tech ball. Virgin's second-shot IPO, Karoon's Brazilian land-grab, and a pulled-pork deep dive on **COG** round out the finance. After hours: jazz-piano Goldblum, Kelly's Heroes, and Peter Ellyard's octogenarian optimism. 

Stacie Mintz, head of quantitative equity for PGIM Quantitative Solutions, says that equity valuations in emerging markets are at their most attractive level relative to U.S. stocks in decades. That's not a surprise, as emerging markets have underperformed domestic markets for the last 13 years, but Mintz says the time has come for diversification to pay off. While the headline risks of tariffs, trade wars and geopolitics loom large,she said current values are compelling enough that investors should be comfortable waiting for a payoff when the news cycle calms down. Jasmine Escalera discusses a survey done by LiveCareer which showed that "ghost job postings" — listings for phantom jobs that don't exist — have become a staple of the hiring process for nearly half of all American human-resources  pros. Plus Richard Howe, editor of the Stock Spin-off Investing newsletter, returns to the Market Call, talking about what can make spin-offs attractive, compares the roll-out of subsidiaries to the initial public offering process and discusses howlong spin-off effects linger.

We talked to Bill Blackman, Business Manager of the IBEW Local 136 about their new contract.

Elliott has agreed to a two-year contract extension with $12.5 million in new money, which will make him just the 30th-highest-paid safety in the NFL, despite a strong season with the Steelers in 2024.

Wondering where all the property bargains have gone? You're not alone. The Northern Beaches real estate market has undergone a dramatic transformation that's changing the game for buyers and sellers alike.Today we dive deep into what we're calling "bracket creep" - a permanent upward shift in entry-level price points that's reshaping the market landscape. The numbers tell a compelling story: two-bedroom apartments in beachside suburbs like Dee Why that were available for $800,000 just 18 months ago now command a median price of $995,000. This 20% jump creates a particularly steep hurdle for first-time buyers who don't have existing property equity to leverage.The housing market presents its own fascinating dynamic. While prices have been trending upward over the past year, they're essentially recovering lost ground rather than breaking new highs. The result? Many buyers feel they've missed the bottom of the market but remain hesitant to commit at current prices. We share concrete data from suburbs like Allambie Heights to help you understand whether today's prices truly represent value or not.Perhaps most striking is the dramatic reduction in available properties. Our decade-long tracking reveals Northern Beaches listings have plummeted from nearly 900 in late 2022 to just 634 today. Combined with improved borrowing capacity as interest rates trend downward, this supply-demand imbalance continues driving prices upward, especially in the chronically undersupplied apartment sector.Whether you're looking to buy your first home, upgrade to something larger, or strategically time your sale, understanding these market fundamentals is crucial. Reach out with your questions as you navigate this challenging but opportunity-rich real estate environment.

A bill recently advanced in the state Legislature that would give a $10,000 tax break to property owners who install a fortified roof. This comes after a recent study found that houses with fortified roofs in coastal Alabama were nearly 75% less likely to file insurance claims after hurricanes. This bill moves forward while a different insurance bill, written by state Senator Royce Duplesis, died in committee. Capitol Access reporter Brooke Thorington spoke to Duplesis about what comes next. A new series from Verite News tells the story of slavery in New Orleans. Titled, “Devil's Bargain,” the essays recount how the slave trade came to the city, sustained the economy and left a terrible legacy.

Let's talk about the “exclusive remedy,” what it means, why Workers' Comp matters, and the exceptions. The concept of exclusive remedy is based on the principle that in exchange for care and benefits, a worker injured on the job may surrender some options for additional remedies.  If you're covered by Workers' Comp, the ability to challenge the employer in court for injuries and pain and suffering may be limited. Workers' Comp is the remedy. We are covered by Workers' Compensation because that can be a good thing, but we may give up the right to sue. Ideally, it's a fair deal for workers and employers. “The Great Bargain.” But there are twists and turns. Negligence, bad faith, family medical leave needs, disabilities, “double compensation,” and third-party interests all add to the puzzle. When does an injured worker get the “green light” to seek compensation outside of the exclusive remedy?  And what about non-injury damages like defamation, malicious prosecution, slander, or mental anguish? Or what if a “leased” employee (think temp agencies) is hurt? While the exclusive remedy simplifies the management of workplace injuries in many cases, it's not always as clear as it seems, and it's important to know where the exceptions lurk. The goal is always to make injured workers whole. Every case matters.  If you have thoughts on Workers' Comp law or an idea for a topic or guest you'd like to hear, contact us at JPierce@ppnlaw.com or APierce@ppnlaw.com.  Mentioned in This Episode: Green v.

Sometimes, having too much stuff isn't as fun as it seems!

It's time for Jack and Kate to explore their vintage paperback piles and trade tales from the yellowed pages of the past. Jack wades through the sweltering psychosexual Southern Gothickry of Donald Harington's 1965 sex comedy (?) The Cherry Pit while Kate learns what happens when Hitler faces off with Dracula in Jon Ruddy's 1990 shock-horror masterpiece (?) The Bargain. Will we encounter the worst Van Helsings of all time? Why don't the cool madams in exploitation novels get their own books? What are “big dinners” and how often will “big dinners” be referenced? All these questions and more will be explored in this episode of Bad Books for Bad People. Find us at BadBooksBadPeople.com, on Twitter @badbooksbadppl, Instagram @badbooksbadpeople, on Bluesky @badbooksbadppl.bsky.social, and on Facebook. Got questions, comments or feedback?
