Must be a day for warnings because 7 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 1: US polls show voters are tiring of Donald Trump, and 8 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: how smart watch data and AI are combining to uncover 9 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: heart problems. It is Thursday, the sixth of November twenty 10 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,599 Speaker 1: twenty five. Michael Thompson and good morning, Sean Aylmer. 11 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 2: Morning, Michael, something for everyone this morning. I think we've 12 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:50,239 Speaker 2: got regulators, we've got gold, we've got us voting, all 13 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 2: sorts of things. 14 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: Oh, it's a real mix today, Sean. Let's start with 15 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: the main story. It seems a logical place to begin. 16 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: The local share market fell to a six week low 17 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: yesterday as Wall streets tech titans tumbles, and other asset classes, 18 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: including bitcoin and including gold, dropped as investors get nervous 19 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: about high valuations. 20 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 2: Wasn't what you'd call a bloodbath, but they were selling 21 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 2: everywhere on the back of a fairly disparate bunch of events. 22 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 2: Looking locally first, mining stocks pushed the local share market 23 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 2: to a six week low yesterday morning, with concerns about 24 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 2: competition in iron or out of Africa. Always wanted to 25 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 2: use that phrase out of Africa. Competition iron or out 26 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,119 Speaker 2: of Africa. Weighing on VHP, Rio Tinto and fortes Qugh 27 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 2: Metals Group. There were media reports that China plans to 28 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 2: develop a mine at the world's largest untapped iron ore 29 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: reserving Guinea that would certainly hurt the local miners. Local 30 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: tech stocks were also sold off following a sell down 31 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 2: on Wall Street, particularly of those mega tech caps that's 32 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 2: renewed concerns about valuations and index of the Magnificent seven 33 00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 2: tech stocks and Vidia, Microsoft, Apple, Meta, Amazon, Alphabet, and 34 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 2: Tesla fell more than two percent yesterday, though the biggest 35 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 2: loser was actually the current market Darling on Wall Street 36 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 2: a data software group called Pallunteer Technologies. It shared ten 37 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: percent on nervousness about its AI outlook. It had been 38 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 2: up one hundred and seventy percent, So just sort of 39 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 2: seeing that nervousness around tech stock valuations at the moment 40 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: and the prospect of no more rate cuts in Australia 41 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 2: following the Reserve Bank boards meeting on Monday and Tuesday 42 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 2: of this week weighed on equities here. During the day, 43 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,799 Speaker 2: the market did for by as much as half percent. 44 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 2: It sort of paired back most of those losses by 45 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 2: the end of the day. It closed down slightly to 46 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 2: eighty eight hundred and two points. Many investment analysts have 47 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 2: warned of a bumpy end to the year. What's emerging 48 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 2: is a slightly it's probably more than slightly. It's a 49 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 2: higher aversion to risk at the moment, concerns over tech 50 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: company valuations and receding expectations of rate cuts in the 51 00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 2: US and Australia, and that's pushing down asset prices all 52 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 2: over the place. 53 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: Does this mean we're less likely to have a Santa 54 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: Rally this year? Sean. We've talked about Santa rallies in 55 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 1: the past, and I just love to bring that up. 56 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, quite the opposite, because if we where are we 57 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 2: November early November, if we fall for the next four 58 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 2: to six weeks, surely that's just settings up for a 59 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 2: Santa rally. 60 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: Oh great, Okay, Bitcoin, We need to talk about bitcoin 61 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: because that fell below one hundred thousand US dollars a 62 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: unit for the first time since June. While gold and 63 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: oil both fell, it was just just falling everywhere. 64 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: It was. I mean, the cryptocurrencies actually were the ones 65 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 2: that dropped most. Bitcoin was fetching just under ninety seven 66 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 2: ninety seven thousand US dollars had fallen by about twenty 67 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: percent from its peak of last month. That recovered somewhat 68 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 2: to back to that about that one hundred thousand US 69 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 2: dollars a unit mark. The number two cryptocurrency, Ethereum, is 70 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 2: the one that's really taken a fall. It's of thirty 71 00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: six percent since its peak. Now markets are fickle the least, 72 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 2: no surprises there, Michael, But in recent days there's just 73 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: been a sense that tech stocks and cryptocurrencies have been overvalued. 74 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 2: Even gold, the ultimate safe haven asset, has been caught up, 75 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 2: with the price of bullion heading back towards thirty nine 76 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: hundred US dollars an ounce, down about ten percent from 77 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: its peak. Silver's off even more from its peak. Brent 78 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 2: krude at sixty four dollars in barrels also trading at 79 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: low levels. It's twenty percent off its peak earlier this year. 80 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 2: It's just a sense of our knees in financial markets 81 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 2: at the moment. 82 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: Michael, Why then is gold falling? Sean? If there is 83 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: so much unease and anxiety and people are worried about 84 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: kind of tech company valuations and things, why are we're 85 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: not seeing gold continuing to climb if that is the 86 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 1: safe haven. 87 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 2: Because at some point value matters, and with gold at 88 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 2: forty one hundred US dollars an ounce, that is expensive. 89 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 2: There's never been anywhere near that, and so even though 90 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 2: other valuations are sort of coming off, gold is just 91 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 2: too h And what's important here? You know, I said 92 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: right at the top, this isn't a blood bath. We're 93 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 2: not seeing selling selling selling. We're just seeing all sorts 94 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 2: of asset classes getting lower, okay, And that kind of 95 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 2: means gold can get lower. If you saw a mega 96 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 2: sell off of tech stocks or a bitcoin, then gold 97 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 2: is less likely to fall. But you're not. You're just 98 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 2: sing across the board drops on valuation concerns. 99 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: Okay. I love for the fact, when we're considering the 100 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: fact it's not a blood bath, you've managed to mention 101 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: the word blood bath twice. Now it's great, isn't it. 102 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: It's a ripper of a term. 103 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 2: Now. 104 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: The boss of the Corporate Regulator, Sean Joe Longo, yesterday 105 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: said that Australia's financial markets need to innovate or stagnate, 106 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: and private credit in this country faces its own Minsky moments, 107 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 1: suggesting a market collapse as a real possibility. 108 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: So you did some research on what a Minsky moment is? 109 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I've been learning all the about the five 110 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: stages of a bubble as defined by the economist Time 111 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: and P. Minski. Yeah, yeah, I found this. Yeah, I've 112 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: got no idea what the P stands for. I'm assuming 113 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: it's maybe filter, Yeah, yeah, it maybe. But about this 114 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: the fact that it's kind of displacement, boom, euphoria, profit taking, 115 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 1: and then panic. 116 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the GFC normally Minsky moments selling collapse 117 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 2: for markets following a period of unsustainable speculative investing involving 118 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 2: big amounts of debt. Now, I think Jane Longo is 119 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 2: probably sort of at one end of the spectrum here. 120 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 2: He said private credit is still small, there's time to act, 121 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: but he put the industry on notice they need to 122 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: improve otherwise the sector will face new legislative obligations. Longo 123 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 2: was speaking at the National Press Club after the release 124 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 2: of four different research reports into public and private markets. 125 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 2: He said Australia needs to consider when the company is 126 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: public or private and the rules for each. For example, 127 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 2: if a super fund invest using member funds, so yours 128 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 2: are my money, how should that be considered? If we're 129 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: sort of retail investors, that's putting our money potentially into 130 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 2: private sector investments. He also pondered by a buyo tech 131 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 2: company with less than ten million dollars in turnover should 132 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 2: have the same compliance as BHP and more than Sydney Airport, 133 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 2: which is now a private company. So he's thrown a 134 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 2: lot of stuff uf in the air Jo long Ao, 135 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 2: and it'll be interesting to see where it all settles. 136 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 2: It'll take years to unravel, but certainly private credit seems 137 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 2: to be in the sites of Ask. 138 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: Him and P Minsky, did you guess that his middle 139 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: name was Philip? 140 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 2: Yeah? I said, phil You were right? Really yeah? 141 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: Well well done, you're a well you are a student 142 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: of economics after all, I suspect it. I was probably 143 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: tucked away in there, somewhere deep within the gray matter. 144 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: Well done. Sure, We've still got plenty to come back 145 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: in a moment with the rest of the day's business news. 146 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: Sean Goodman Group has reported a solid September quarter, and 147 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: the data center and Commercial Property group said development activity 148 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: is set to accelerate in the second half. 149 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 2: But Boss Greg Goodman warned that it's getting harder to 150 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 2: build data centers, notwithstanding all the tens of billions of 151 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 2: dollars being strown around globally. When asked about the big 152 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 2: tech companies throwing money at AI infrastructure, Goodman said, there's 153 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 2: not enough money in the world to finance the aspirations, 154 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: and that's the reality, is what he said. There needs 155 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: to be a bit of common sense in building good, 156 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 2: long term products. It's kind of the opposite to what 157 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 2: many of the tech companies are saying at the moment. 158 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 2: Goodman reported a twelve point four billion dollar or twelve 159 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,959 Speaker 2: point four billion dollars of work in progress. Sixty eight 160 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 2: percent of that is in data centers, so obviously they're 161 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 2: big into data centers. The plan is to lift that 162 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 2: to more than seven in half billion dollars by the 163 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 2: middle of next year. Goodman's share price fell yesterday, fell 164 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 2: couple percent, maybe three percent. By the clothes a few 165 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 2: years back, starting with COVID moving into the AI era. 166 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 2: We used to talk about Goodman all the time. It's 167 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 2: like the hottest stocks in the AX. The steam has 168 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 2: well and truly come out. It's off twelve percent so 169 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 2: far this year and the worst performing large caps. In fact, 170 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 2: of the top fifty stocks, only Wise Tech, Global, James 171 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 2: Hardy and CSL have done worse than Goodman over the 172 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 2: past twelve months. 173 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: Oh wow, that's so. I find that staggering because those 174 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 1: companies have had some for some really. 175 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 2: Significant issues dropped. 176 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, how about this one. 177 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 2: Saw. 178 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 1: More than two billion dollars have been has been recovered 179 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: for underpaid workers in the past five years, with over 180 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: half the amount back paid by large corporate employers, according 181 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: to the Fair Work on Bodsmen. 182 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: The Almudsman's annual report shows the agency recovered three hundred 183 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 2: and fifty eight million dollars for more than two one 184 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 2: hundred and forty nine thousand underpaid workers last financial lia 185 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 2: Fair Work Ombardsman and a both said that the FWO 186 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 2: had delivered significant back payments to workers across the nation, 187 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 2: holding employers to account. Last year also marked the Omberdsman's 188 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 2: highest ever penalty in a court in a single action 189 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 2: when operators of Sushi Bay outlets in New southwalesk Canber 190 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 2: and Darwin were ordered to pay fifteen point three million 191 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 2: dollars for deliberately underpaying one hundred and sixty three workers 192 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 2: more than six hundred and fifty thousand dollars. 193 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: We mentioned wise Tech just a moment ago. Seawan, the 194 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 1: former independent directors of wise Tech Global who resigned on 195 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: mass in February, says they've basically come out and said 196 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: they are not being investigated by the corporate regulator. 197 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 2: It comes as ASSEK looks into potential insider trading by 198 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 2: billionaire founder Richard White. Former wiss Tech chairman Richard Damary, 199 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 2: a long with former colleagues Lisa Brock, Fiona pac Poi 200 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 2: and Michael Malone said they were interviewed by ASSEG in 201 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 2: March following their resignation. Since then, there's been no further 202 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 2: contact with the regulator. Last week, wise Tech Global's headquarters 203 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,959 Speaker 2: in Sydney was rated by officials from ASSEK and the 204 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 2: Australian Federal Police as part of an investigation into trades 205 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 2: made by White and three other unnamed employees. 206 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: Turning to International News Now, Sean and what has loosely 207 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: been described as judgment on the performance of Republican President 208 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Polls in New York City, New Jersey, and 209 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: Virginia have all been won by Democrats, while a vote 210 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 1: in California sided with a Democrats proposal. 211 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know what I said loosely when in 212 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 2: this intro, but what's been described as a judgment not 213 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 2: even loosely described. The Democrats are cheering from the rafters 214 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 2: at the moment. The highest profile poll was the mayoral 215 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 2: election in New York City, where thirty four year old 216 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 2: Zorin Ma'am Downey, a Muslim who Donald Trump has been 217 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: highly critical of, was voted the youngest mayor of the 218 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 2: city in more than one hundred years. More than two 219 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 2: million voters cast ballot. That's the highest turnout in the 220 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 2: city since nineteen sixty nine, last time there was a 221 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 2: mayor or race one point one million, so it's nearly 222 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 2: twice that many. In California, voters agreed to a redist 223 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 2: redistricting effort intended to partially neutralize a push by Trump 224 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 2: to draw up more safe Republican seats before next year's 225 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 2: midterm elections. So win for Democrats there, and in New 226 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: Jersey and Virginia, Democrat governors were elected. In the case 227 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 2: of Virginia, the previous governor was a Republican, and the 228 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 2: Democrats made significant in roads across that state. There was 229 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 2: also a vote in Pennsylvania where Democrats kept control of 230 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 2: the state Supreme Court. Undoubtedly a bad day for Republicans. 231 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 2: Donald Trump responded, tweeting, I quote, Trump wasn't on the 232 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 2: ballot and shut down were the two reasons that Republicans 233 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 2: lost elections tonight. I wouldn't say that's gracious. 234 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 1: No, no, not particularly, And I think you do need 235 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,359 Speaker 1: to read something into the fact that a number of 236 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: these candidates for governor, the Democrats in particular, actually positioned 237 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: their campaigns as an anti anti Trump vote, right, and 238 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: so that you've got to read something into that, right, 239 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: But I don't know whether the president is quite able 240 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 1: to reflect upon that. 241 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the Zorain Mendani he was. I mean, 242 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 2: Trump actually came out day ahead and said if you 243 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 2: vote for him, then New York won't be getting federal 244 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 2: fund as much federal funding, which I don't know how 245 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 2: you can say that. I mean, it's almost illegal. But anyway, 246 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 2: what are. 247 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 1: You saying that occasionally the president kind of shoots from 248 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: the hip on truth social never staying with Donald Trump. 249 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: The fate of the majority of his tariffs as in 250 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 1: the hands of the US Supreme Court, who overnight heard 251 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 1: arguments following lower court rulings that they were issued illegally 252 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: under an emergency law. 253 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 2: The tariffs have remained in place to allow a Trump 254 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 2: administration to appeal to the Supreme Court, which of course 255 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 2: is the highest court in the US. The tariffs in 256 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 2: question of those imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers 257 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 2: Act that includes the minimum baseline tariff of ten percent, 258 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 2: which impacts Australia. This is thus far the biggest test 259 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 2: of Trump's power that's gone to the Supreme Court. 260 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: Now, how about this, right? Scientists have uncovered structural heart 261 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: problems by using an artificial intelligence tool to vet smart 262 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: watch data and the latest advance in the fast evolving 263 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: field of cardiology diagnostics. We talk a lot about kind 264 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: of AI and chat JBT and kind of using it 265 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 1: to speed things up in the workplace. This is kind 266 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: of AI being used for the real benefit of mankind. 267 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 2: Oh totally. The new technique found conditions including weakened pumping 268 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 2: ability damaged valves and thickened muscle, promising to expand the 269 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 2: potential of wearing of wearable devices beyond detecting rhythm disorders. 270 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 2: The work ises simple readouts of heart electrical activity known 271 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 2: as single lead electro cardiograms, that can be recorded by 272 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 2: smart watches without the need for anything extra. It's according 273 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 2: to a report in the FT. The preliminary study was 274 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 2: unveiled at the American Heart Association's annual Scientific Sessions and 275 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 2: according to its authors, has the potential to transform structural 276 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 2: heart disease screening in communities. It could make early screening 277 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 2: for structural heart disease possible on a massive scale using 278 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 2: devices many people already own now. Smart watch heart data 279 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 2: is already used to spot warning science for atrial freeb 280 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 2: relation and irregular rhythm. But what this study does and 281 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 2: it hasn't been looked at by peers. It hasn't been 282 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 2: peer reviewed yet, so it's still ways to go. But 283 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 2: it suggests that all these other issues can be not 284 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 2: diagnosed just using a smart watch in AI. 285 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: That's pretty incredible. Okay. Up next is the Fear and 286 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: Greed Q and A. Your guest today is Kate Anderson 287 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: from Now infinity. 288 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 2: This is a great chat. We always talk about investing. 289 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 2: We don't talk about investing here. We talk about setting 290 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 2: up your own self managed superfund and all the stuff 291 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: you need to do except for investing, and there's a 292 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 2: lot of it. So if you're interested in running your 293 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 2: own self managed superfund, if you have done, you might 294 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 2: do in the future. Well worth a listen. 295 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: And this is part of the Classic Night twenty twenty 296 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: five and Fear and Greed are actually media partners of 297 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: the Classic Night twenty twenty five conference and this is 298 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: part of that one.
