I’ve been watching Australia’s inflation story unfold with a mix of familiarity and unease. Each new data release feels like déjà vu: price pressures that refuse to cool, warnings from the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) that feel increasingly stern, and a sense that the path forward is narrowing ...

Every cycle has a bellwether. Today it's NVIDIA. We're operating in a two-speed economy where the US consumer looks fatigued, while corporate AI spending is a rocket ship.

The issue with stock markets is not that they are broadly overvalued. The overvaluation is mainly concentrated in the largest AI stocks that also have the best growth. The problem is that if you want to diversify, the rest of your choices are often reasonably priced but have a much poorer growth ...

US inflation is still pretty contained. There are lots of areas of concern, but the overall numbers look good given the environment.

Independent performance tables to 30 June are in, and the AFR has listed the best‑performing large super funds. Our flagship Nucleus Growth fund finished near the very top with a 12.1 % return for FY‑25¹.

Bloomberg is out this week talking about the "once-in-a-generation trade" in the copper market: The Aug. 1 deadline for Trump's 50% copper tariffs signals the endgame for the most profitable trade that industry veterans say they have ever seen...
