Welcome to 5 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 1: Fear and Greed. Daily business news for people who make 6 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,800 Speaker 1: their own decisions. It is Monday, the tenth of June 7 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,079 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. I'm Michael Thompson and good morning Sean Aylmer. 8 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:26,640 Speaker 2: Good morning, Michael. 9 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 1: Sean. Most of the country, with the exception of Wa 10 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: and Queensland, is enjoying a public holiday today for the 11 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 1: King's birthday. Today show is a little brief of the normal, 12 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 1: but we still got a big story to start the show. 13 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: Former Treasurer of Peter Costello has stepped down as chair 14 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 1: of Nine Entertainment Days after an altercation with a journalist 15 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: in Canberra Airport. 16 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 2: Yes. In that altercation, the journalist ended up on the 17 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 2: ground and it appear that mister Castillo vied into him. 18 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 2: The journalist was being very pisky, but he was videoing 19 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 2: it all and suddenly he ended up on his back side. 20 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: The former politic has been in charge of nine for 21 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,639 Speaker 2: eight years and He will be succeeded by the group's 22 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 2: deputy chair, casts from West. Mister Castello presided over Nine 23 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 2: during a very turbulent eight years for media more broadly, 24 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:15,040 Speaker 2: advertising revenue has been shifting away from traditional media towards 25 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: major tech platforms like Google, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, etc. 26 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 2: His exit was somewhat surprising, and it follows a board 27 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 2: meeting on Friday. Of course, the CEO, Mike Sneezeby is 28 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 2: also under pressure as a result of some of the 29 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:35,559 Speaker 2: behavior of members of the nine team. Nine's share price 30 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 2: closed down on Friday at a dollar forty. It's down 31 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 2: thirty percent this calendar year, so it's been a very 32 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: very rough trot for the organization. For the chair Peter Costello, 33 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 2: who's now stepped aside. CEO Mike Sneezeby is still there, 34 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 2: but he's definitely under pressure. 35 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: Yes, John is probably worth a listen to an interview 36 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: that we did last week late last week with Tim Burrows, 37 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: who is a media commentator knows everything in the media 38 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: so well really on the broader outlook for media companies 39 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: more broadly, and Nine was one of the ones that 40 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:07,559 Speaker 1: you spoke to him about. 41 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, Nine has really struggled share price wise, and so 42 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 2: I asked him what he thinks the long term prognosis 43 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 2: is for the company. It is well worth listened just 44 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 2: to hear what Tim reckons the outlook is for nine 45 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,559 Speaker 2: and sevens. The other big one which we talked about. 46 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, you'll find that one in the playlist, the Fear 47 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: and grad playlist. It was published towards the end of 48 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: last week. Now sean checking markets thanks to blue chip 49 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 1: communication the experts helping financial services companies market communicate and grow. 50 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: Where do we finish up last week? 51 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 2: The S and PA six two hundred closed half a 52 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 2: percent higher on Friday. It finished at eight hundred and 53 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 2: sixty points. It meant the gains across the full week 54 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 2: was two percent on Friday. It was the iron ore 55 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 2: miners that did particularly well. They had fallen earlier in 56 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: the week, but it turned around anroe ore prices helped 57 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 2: that along. It's pretty solid five days all and all, 58 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 2: and if you take it all together, it really was 59 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 2: the banks that was drive the market last week, helped 60 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 2: by renewed confidence the next move in interest rates will 61 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 2: be down now. Having said that, strong jobs data in 62 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 2: the US over the weekend suggests a fairly solid economy 63 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 2: in the US and that sent Wall Street lower. So 64 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,239 Speaker 2: when our markets open tomorrow they are probably going to 65 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 2: be under some pressure. For all of last week, Wall 66 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 2: Street was up the S and P five hundred free 67 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 2: broad based index. It was that one point three percent. 68 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 2: The t TV nastaate jump two point four percent. Not 69 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 2: a lot going on in commodity markets. Over the past 70 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 2: forty eight hours or so. The Aussie dollar has slipped 71 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: below sixty six US since Sean. 72 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: We've still got a fair bit to cover this morning, 73 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: but a quick mention of two interviews we have coming 74 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: up after the show, the first of course being Stephen 75 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: Cocoulis for Fear and Greed, the Weak Ahead. He's always excited, Stephen. 76 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 2: Always excited. Talk about the growth numbers last week that 77 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 2: was very fascinating and what's going to happen this week 78 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 2: with labor force numbers due out. 79 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: And then after that something a little bit different. You're 80 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: speaking with Michael Whip, who is better known to many 81 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: people as Whipper, one third of the Nova Sydney breakfast 82 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: show Fitzie and Whipper with Kate Richie. 83 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: A lovely fella, very entertaining at the moment. He's really 84 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 2: hoping to gather a ground swell of support to encourage 85 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 2: the government to lift the age from thirteen to sixteen 86 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: years that people are allowed to use or children are 87 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 2: allowed to use social media, and it's called thirty six months. 88 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 2: That's the difference between that age of thirteen and sixteen. 89 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 2: He is quite passionate about the need to help kids 90 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 2: understand themselves before they get too involved in social media. 91 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 2: It is a great cause and well worth a listen. 92 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely a very good one to be supporting. All right, 93 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: plenty to get through. As I mentioned, Sean, it might 94 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: be shorter, but we've got plenty to cover. We'll be 95 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: back in a moment with the rest of the day's 96 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: business news. 97 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 2: Sean. 98 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: Mexican themed fast food chain Guzmany Gomez has increased its 99 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: initial public offer by nearly one hundred million dollars to 100 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty five million, and its largest shareholder will. 101 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 2: Sell more of its steak Goodman ego mes First flag 102 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 2: It's two point two billion dollar flat plans a week ago, 103 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: and late on Friday eight said it had received a 104 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 2: commitment from funds associated with Capital Research Global Investors to 105 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 2: subscribe for shares at the offer price of twenty two 106 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 2: dollars per share. According to a report in the Financial Review, 107 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 2: The IPO offer size thus has been increased from two 108 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 2: hundred and forty two point five million to three hundred 109 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 2: and thirty five point one million, reflecting also an additional 110 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 2: selldown of about ninety three million dollars by TDM Growth Partners. 111 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: It's holding in Goodsman Egomez will now sit at twenty 112 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 2: six point two percent. It's the biggest shareholder compared with 113 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 2: twenty nine point seven percent we'd held before the IPO. Anyway, 114 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 2: it all just seems full stem head with that particular float. 115 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:51,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, certainly does. 116 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 2: Now. 117 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: You may have to explain this one to me a 118 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: little bit. Sean. More than one hundred investors across five 119 00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: continents bought Australia's first ever green bond, including fifteen institutions 120 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: new to Australian government bond. 121 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: Yes, quite exciting actually. So green bond is money lent 122 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: to the government, to the Australian government with their green purpose. 123 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 2: It may be around housing, it may be around the environment. 124 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 2: There are lots of things that it can be used for. 125 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 2: Very difficult to get away often because it's quite hard 126 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 2: to judge what a green bond is, and then it 127 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 2: kind of down the line to see what sort of 128 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 2: return you're getting from it. The final order book in 129 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 2: this instance of the seven billion dollar ten year offer 130 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 2: drew more than twenty three billion dollars in bids, three 131 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 2: times what's on offer. The Australian Office of Financial Management 132 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 2: estimates that the issue paid a greenium of two basis 133 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 2: points above nominal bonds. I better explain what a greenium is. 134 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 2: It means investors are prepared to pay more and therefore 135 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 2: receive a lower yield that two basis points pay two 136 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 2: basis points more. Therefore their returns are slightly lower for 137 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: green bonds compared to traditional bonds. It basically demonstrates their 138 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 2: commitment to a sustainable environment. And the thing about a 139 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 2: green bond is many superannuation funds, for example, they have 140 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 2: members who are saying we want to invest in green products. 141 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 2: This gives them one of those products. Hence there's a greenium. 142 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 2: You actually get a bit less for investing in it. 143 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 2: Two thirds of the investors were domestic, twelve percent went 144 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 2: to UK investors, eleven percent Continental to Europe, eight percent 145 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: to Asia. The money will be used. In this instance, 146 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 2: the money will be used in programs to finance specific 147 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 2: projects to support the country's transition to zero net carbon emissions. 148 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 2: All around, a pretty successful outcome for the government. 149 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: Also, what was very successful was your explanation just then. 150 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: I followed every single word of. 151 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 2: That, feeling proud of myself on that one. 152 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: Just don't test me on anything. But even if you did, 153 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: I reckon I would pass right now, you go, green 154 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: is green. That's a relatively new term, I'm assuming. 155 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 2: Yes, well, yes, I've heard of it around a bit, 156 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: you know, a grinium. So you pay just that little 157 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 2: bit more for doing good for the environment. 158 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: I love that. And Sean you also you mentioned super 159 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: funds during that. And now we've got a bit of 160 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: a superstory that these stories are is linking together so smoothly. 161 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 2: Today, beautiful, this morning. 162 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: It's almost as though you've planned this. This is poetry. 163 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: I don't think anyone's ever kind of described superannuation as 164 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: poetry before. 165 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 2: No, possibly not. 166 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: But Australia's three point six trillion dollars superannuation industry has 167 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: split on the need to overhaul the controversial performance test 168 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: that funds are subjected to annually, with some saying that 169 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: the rules don't allow super funds to invest in nation 170 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: building exercises. 171 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a really interesting story. Australian superinhestor to 172 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 2: the big guys are pushing ahead with calls for a 173 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 2: rewrite of the rules as Treasury reviews the test. Critics 174 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 2: claim that the test doesn't allow them to invest in 175 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 2: long term trends such as energy, transitional social housing. According 176 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 2: to media reports, under the existing rules, the Australian Prudential 177 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 2: Regulation Authority publicly names poorly performing funds by measuring them 178 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: against a range of benchmarks over a ten year timeframe, 179 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 2: as well as their annual fees. Now the issue that benchmark, though, 180 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: how can the funds find a benchmark when they're investing 181 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 2: in new things like public housing that they've never done 182 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 2: before and it may actually be a slow burn, It 183 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 2: may take longer for them to make money out of that. 184 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 2: So they're totally disincentivized to invest in public housing in 185 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 2: this instance because their results will be below the benchmark, 186 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 2: and then they get shamed by the regulators. If the 187 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 2: funds repeatedly fail to meet that benchmark, they can be 188 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 2: barred from signing up new members. It's the benchmarks which 189 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 2: really are the problem here. Rest supers submission called for 190 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 2: most of the tests to say the same, but to 191 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,959 Speaker 2: add new benchmarks to cater for emerging asset classes such 192 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 2: as housing public housing. Another great example is renewable energy assets. 193 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 2: The current infrastructure benchmark doesn't adequately reflect returns for renewable 194 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 2: energy assets. So there are the two examples. We've got 195 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 2: housing and renewable energy assets and the benchmarks just don't 196 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 2: work for that. And superfunds are saying, well, you want 197 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 2: us to invest in it AKA, but you need to 198 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 2: change the rules so we don't fall below the benchmark. 199 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: That's fascinating story. Turning to international news now, Israeli forces 200 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 1: rescued four hostages held by Hamas since October in a 201 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: raiding Gaza over the weekend, but Palestinian officials say that 202 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: the raid killed more than two hundred people. One of 203 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: these single bloodiest Israeli assaults of the eight month old war. 204 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,439 Speaker 2: The hostage rescue operations and an intense accompanying air assault 205 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,959 Speaker 2: took place in central Gaza and in a densely built 206 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,959 Speaker 2: up area. Israel's forces came under intense fire during the 207 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 2: assault and responded by firing from the air end from 208 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 2: the street. According to a spokesperson that's reported in Reuter's 209 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 2: Gars and paramedics and residents of the assault killed scores 210 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 2: of people and left mangle the bodies of men, women 211 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 2: and children strewn across a marketplace and a mosque. 212 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: Finally, Sean I mentioned this one at the top of 213 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: the show. Investor Bill Gross, once known as the bond King, 214 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: is looking to set a different investment record next week 215 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: when the highlights of his rare stamp collection go under 216 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: the hammer in New York. I'm genuinely excited by this. 217 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 2: Yes, bros. Is a huge name in bond investing, probably 218 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 2: the biggest name in the market. He has also built 219 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 2: the most complete collection of US stamps in history, and 220 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 2: he's putting it up for sale stamp by stamp, by 221 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 2: the way, so pre sale estimates suggest the sale could 222 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 2: bring fifteen to twenty million US dollars, which would definitely 223 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 2: set a record for a US stamp collection. The most 224 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 2: valuable piece is in eighteen sixty eight one cent z 225 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 2: grill it's called It is likely to shatter the record 226 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 2: for a single US stamp, probably get somewhere between four 227 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 2: and five million The only other copy of that stamp 228 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 2: is owned by the New York Public Library. According to 229 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 2: the Financial Times, the current stamp record in the US 230 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 2: was set last year in a single inverted Jenny stamp 231 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 2: named the mistaken print of an upside down Aeroplane, sold 232 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 2: for two million dollars. This would be twice that Mister 233 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 2: Gross's interest in stamps apparently comes from his mum. She 234 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 2: bought stamps to the nineteen thirties and nineteen forties, hoping 235 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 2: that eventually pay for his college education. Given how much 236 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 2: money he's made, he could probably pay her back fairly well. 237 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 2: Now all his stamps are going up for sal. 238 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: Oh, it's a great story. Do you remember when those 239 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 1: upside down aeroplane stamps featured in the Simpsons? Just very 240 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: very briefly, remember, I think I just just from memory, 241 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: like Homer, I think was going through like a big 242 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: tub of things at like a yard sale kind of thing, 243 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: and he's just got just pulling out priceless art of 244 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: after prices, like pulled out a violin, reading off the 245 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: back and going straight to hoovious and chucked it out 246 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,839 Speaker 1: kind of thing. And then then found a sheet full 247 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: of stamps and not all the planes are upside down 248 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: and chucks it out. That would have to be the 249 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: most famous stamp, right. I know you talk about the 250 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: Z grill. I'm and I couldn't pick a Z line. 251 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 1: You show me an upside down plane and courtesy of 252 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: the Simpsons, I will go that thing. 253 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 2: Is another one. 254 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: I'll for that, all right? 255 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 2: Good. 256 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 1: Up next is the Fear and Greed Daily Interview.
