Summer in New York, Washington and Dallas?
I had the pleasure of visiting the US in June this year and visited New York and Washington for the first time for an investing event at the Nasdaq. You can find my latest piece for Cove Magazine, Queensland’s best luxury property and vacation magazine. I enjoyed the visit to the US so much that…

Are we due another rate cut?
With another RBA rate call on the horizon, on 1st April, the debate about whether or not a cut will be warranted is very much under consideration. CPI is down to 2.4%, yet the probability of a recession in the US has increased. You can find my forecasts and thoughts in my latest piece for…

Can the Australian economy really emulate America?
If economics are what you are interested in (I realise that they aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but they do deserve some credit, as they underpin every other form of policy out there), you might like to read about how we can increase productivity sustainably.

Brace Yourself
With inflation having fallen further in Australia and the AUD/USD exchange rate also having fallen, you can find my thoughts on what the quickest, least uncomfortable way for the RBA to bring inflation down could be in the first half of 2024. How can we get to 2-3% as quickly as possibly with the least…
