Our weekend show is vastly different from the 6 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:20,880 Michael Thompson: weekday show. It's all about the two of us each 7 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:24,400 Michael Thompson: nominating what we think is the biggest business story of 8 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:29,120 Michael Thompson: the week. Wonder what that might be the most remarkable story. 9 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:33,479 Michael Thompson: We've got a mystery category as well to keep our 10 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,200 Michael Thompson: judge on his toes and our favorite story of the week. 11 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,720 Michael Thompson: We are joined, as I mentioned, by a judge every 12 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:41,680 Michael Thompson: week to decide a winner. That judge is our Fear 13 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,840 Michael Thompson: and Greed colleague Adam Lange Adam, good morning. 14 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,720 Adam Lang: Good morning Michael, and good morning Sean. 15 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:46,600 Sean Aylmer: Morning Adam. 16 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,680 Michael Thompson: What are you looking for today, Adam? When you were judging? 17 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,080 Sean Aylmer: What are you looking for in life? 18 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:59,959 Adam Lang: Much like this show, topicality, timeliness, economic impact, Sean and Michael, 19 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,440 Adam Lang: a bit of playing to my subjective bias and what 20 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,680 Adam Lang: a week for that as well as melodrama. 21 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,080 Michael Thompson: Okay, do you look for melodrama in your everyday life? 22 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,360 Adam Lang: I do, actually, because I don't have it naturally, as 23 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,680 Adam Lang: you could probably tell. So I look forward to that. 24 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:14,679 Sean Aylmer: You've got kids. 25 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:16,800 Adam Lang: I've got real drama. 26 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:24,520 Sean Aylmer: Guarantee your wife has melodrama in her life, Adam. Go, Lara. 27 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,760 Michael Thompson: Let's move on, you know. On today I'm going to 28 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,440 Michael Thompson: take on the role of the person who's going to 29 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:29,400 Michael Thompson: keep us moving. 30 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:31,080 Adam Lang: Career. 31 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,319 Michael Thompson: We could be here for some time. Biggest story of 32 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,200 Michael Thompson: the week, Sean wanted. 33 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,559 Sean Aylmer: Look, it's tariffs. It's going to be it's tariffs. But 34 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:46,520 Sean Aylmer: what we've decided, Adam, in our normalcluding style, is we're 35 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,240 Sean Aylmer: both going to take an angle on it. You can 36 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:50,960 Sean Aylmer: judge it if you want, but you don't really have 37 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:54,760 Sean Aylmer: to because in the end, Oh he wants to judge it. 38 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:59,360 Michael Thompson: I don't want him to judge it because I believe 39 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,720 Michael Thompson: you might lose. There is a reasonable chance that one 40 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,040 Michael Thompson: half of the story is bigger than the other. 41 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,919 Sean Aylmer: Well, don't judge it. Then don't judge it. Let's let's 42 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,440 Sean Aylmer: help Michael out today. But we would like your comment 43 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,040 Sean Aylmer: on it. Obviously, Donald Trump imposed ten percent tariff's minimum 44 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,000 Sean Aylmer: of ten percent tariffs anything up to fifty four percent 45 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,799 Sean Aylmer: effectively for China. The way they imposed those tariffs has 46 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:27,919 Sean Aylmer: been widely criticized. They basically took goods deficit of a country, 47 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,680 Sean Aylmer: invited it by the total amount of exports of a 48 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,920 Sean Aylmer: country and came up with a number, and off they go. 49 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,280 Sean Aylmer: So I'm going to talk about what it did to markets. 50 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:43,320 Sean Aylmer: The local share market basically spent two days falling following 51 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,519 Sean Aylmer: the tariff announcement from Donald Trump, but that was dedre 52 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:55,080 Sean Aylmer: the main cause. Here two trillion US dollars. It's about 53 00:02:55,120 --> 00:03:00,440 Sean Aylmer: three trillion. Ozzie wiped off, the S and P five hundred, 54 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:07,239 Sean Aylmer: Amazon and n Video were absolutely pummeled, taking the Nasdaq 55 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,959 Sean Aylmer: to its lowest points since August. The Russell two thousand, 56 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,639 Sean Aylmer: which is a measure of two thousand smaller companies, it's 57 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,760 Sean Aylmer: now twenty percent below. It's twenty twenty one high. 58 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,960 Michael Thompson: What is it called the Russell two thousand? 59 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:20,280 Adam Lang: Is there? 60 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,679 Michael Thompson: I'm assuming there is an actual Russe rust dog. 61 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:26,960 Adam Lang: It's the sound the companies make. 62 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,880 Michael Thompson: So I google it while you're talking. Yeah, please, please 63 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:31,120 Michael Thompson: go on. 64 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,119 Sean Aylmer: The Bloomberg Billionaires Index says that the five hundred richest 65 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:41,360 Sean Aylmer: people saw their wealth tumbled two hundred and eight billion 66 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:46,560 Sean Aylmer: dollars in one session. Golded a new high more than 67 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:51,040 Sean Aylmer: thirty one hundred US dollars announce and maybe the news 68 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,960 Sean Aylmer: which people like though it's actually comes with a very 69 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,120 Sean Aylmer: kind of it. I know that's a silver lining or 70 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,720 Sean Aylmer: the dark cloud. The fact that the global economy will 71 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,160 Sean Aylmer: slow so much with hit the local economy that will 72 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,840 Sean Aylmer: cause interest rates to be cut. Now bond markets pricing 73 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,120 Sean Aylmer: in four interest rates cuts over the next twelve months. 74 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:14,000 Sean Aylmer: Ain's economists reckon there will be rate cuts in consecutive 75 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,440 Sean Aylmer: meetings from May to August, meaning three rate cuts in 76 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:24,560 Sean Aylmer: about four months. What I'm talking about in contrast to 77 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,200 Sean Aylmer: that dribble come out of Michael's mouth. 78 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,200 Michael Thompson: Surely I haven't even said any are. 79 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:37,320 Sean Aylmer: These are the real and immediate impacts of Donald Trump's tariffs, 80 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,640 Sean Aylmer: our super fun Do you check your super balance this weekend, fellas, 81 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,760 Sean Aylmer: because it ain't going to be what it was a 82 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,080 Sean Aylmer: week ago or two weeks ago. These are tangible impacts 83 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:49,559 Sean Aylmer: and it could get worse. 84 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,200 Adam Lang: Michael, that was sobering. 85 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,240 Michael Thompson: That was sobering. You know what, There was not any 86 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,520 Michael Thompson: melodrama at all? 87 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:57,840 Sean Aylmer: Did it need it? 88 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:58,240 Michael Thompson: It did? 89 00:04:59,080 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 4: Really? 90 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,200 Sean Aylmer: Yes, like the man in the arena, just two trillion 91 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,320 Sean Aylmer: U S dollars doesn't the fat drama? Michael? The fact 92 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:07,400 Sean Aylmer: stine for itself. 93 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,800 Michael Thompson: There we go, this is what we needed. We just 94 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,040 Michael Thompson: needed a little bit of fire. Where's that sparkagin on fire? 95 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,240 Sean Aylmer: What are you talking about today, Michael, I'm okay, I 96 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,240 Sean Aylmer: tell you about the Russell Yeah, so the Russell two thousand. 97 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,400 Michael Thompson: It is called the Russell two thousand indext because it 98 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,880 Michael Thompson: was started by the Frank Russell Company in nineteen eighty four. 99 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,719 Michael Thompson: And of course, as we all know, Frank Russell was 100 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,120 Michael Thompson: the founder of the Frank Russell Company, which is now 101 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,640 Michael Thompson: Russell Investments, and it was founded in nineteen I was 102 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,359 Michael Thompson: just off the top of my head, nineteen thirty six, 103 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,560 Michael Thompson: I think it was thereabouts. Yeah, genius, that's right. Anyway, 104 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,560 Michael Thompson: next time I'll google these things to make sure I'm right, 105 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:48,280 Michael Thompson: rather than just drawing on the depths of knowledge that 106 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:52,320 Michael Thompson: Wikipedia can provide. Look, yes, that is the biggest story, 107 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,720 Michael Thompson: one hundred percent. It is the bigger story. It's worth 108 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,039 Michael Thompson: mentioning the politics of it as well. Just this is 109 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,320 Michael Thompson: really a supplementary kind of point to it. So I'm 110 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:03,200 Michael Thompson: happy to split points with his shoes fifty. But I 111 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,200 Michael Thompson: mean they are two halves of one whole, or maybe 112 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,040 Michael Thompson: two thirds and one third, because the markets are the 113 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,200 Michael Thompson: biggest part. But like the politics of it, this is 114 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,920 Michael Thompson: Donald Trump fulfilling an election promise and there's really kind 115 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,640 Michael Thompson: of no surprise that he's doing it. The only surprise 116 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,000 Michael Thompson: probably was the scale and the severity of the whole thing. 117 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,840 Michael Thompson: But from an Australian perspective, it is interesting because this 118 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,880 Michael Thompson: is happening in the middle of an election campaign and 119 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,880 Michael Thompson: so suddenly you've got the opportunity for both leaders Anthony 120 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,240 Michael Thompson: up and Easy and Peter Dutton to be responding to 121 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,880 Michael Thompson: a common external enemy who just happens to be our 122 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,520 Michael Thompson: biggest ally as well, which is just a bizarre situation 123 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,640 Michael Thompson: to be in. And they both were talking through the 124 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,200 Michael Thompson: week saying, look these tarifts, this is not on. Peter 125 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,160 Michael Thompson: Dutton says that he reckons he could have got a 126 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,240 Michael Thompson: better result if he was the one in power. It 127 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,360 Michael Thompson: is very unlikely. It doesn't feel like anyone would have 128 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,799 Michael Thompson: been able to get a better result from any country, 129 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,719 Michael Thompson: no matter who you are or what side of politics 130 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,520 Michael Thompson: you're aligned with. It's interesting now because the negotiations will 131 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,280 Michael Thompson: begin to try and re juice the impact on Australia. 132 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,680 Michael Thompson: They are going to begin with Anthony Oupneasy, but who 133 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,280 Michael Thompson: are they going to finish with, right, because we've got 134 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,520 Michael Thompson: an election coming up in just a matter of weeks, 135 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,120 Michael Thompson: and technically the government is in caretaker mode at the moment. 136 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,640 Michael Thompson: And of course it has an impact on global relationships, 137 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,160 Michael Thompson: not just within Australia in the US, but every other 138 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,480 Michael Thompson: country around the world. Like these are allies who are 139 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:26,440 Michael Thompson: being taxed by a friend. It is quite extraordinary. The 140 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:30,200 Michael Thompson: political ramifications of this are deep. People are questioning the 141 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,800 Michael Thompson: relationship with the US. An interesting Facebook message, Sean, I'll 142 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:35,440 Michael Thompson: be interested in your take on this one. This came 143 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,400 Michael Thompson: from Peter, a listener who wrote to us on Facebook 144 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,160 Michael Thompson: saying the ten percent tariff is certainly not a bad 145 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,160 Michael Thompson: result compared to what other countries were hit with, but 146 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,920 Michael Thompson: Australia can't just sit back and cop all these tariffs. 147 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,920 Michael Thompson: At some stage we have to hit back, even just 148 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,040 Michael Thompson: to show Trump that we won't be dictated to Isn't 149 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,960 Michael Thompson: it interesting that that is kind of the feeling. 150 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:59,400 Sean Aylmer: The one I preferred was the grump, the grump on TikTok. 151 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,680 Sean Aylmer: The majority looking about tariff's are the tubby mcfatty's that 152 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,120 Sean Aylmer: love mcdea's. 153 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,320 Michael Thompson: Dripping with empathy and also thank you Peter. Yeah, the 154 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,760 Michael Thompson: politics of it all right, come on, it's all one 155 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,480 Michael Thompson: big story. Give us full No, actually, don't give us 156 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,320 Michael Thompson: full marks each, give me full marks. Knock a couple 157 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,920 Michael Thompson: of marks off Sean for the lack of melodrama today 158 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:25,080 Michael Thompson: it did not bring. 159 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,200 Adam Lang: Yeah, it's just we'll call it a draw twenty five 160 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,600 Adam Lang: points each, right, we'll make it neutral. But I think 161 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,880 Adam Lang: this is one of the most fascinating things to happen 162 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,360 Adam Lang: in international trading years. This is disruptive. So you know, 163 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:45,760 Adam Lang: international training partnerships, the interdependencies between countries, and for US, 164 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,240 Adam Lang: the opportunities don't get stuck into a trade war or 165 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:50,080 Adam Lang: a tariff. 166 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,439 Michael Thompson: For So don't do what Peter what Peter wants to do. 167 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:53,960 Adam Lang: I'm going to take an alternate view. 168 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,920 Sean Aylmer: You guys from the Norfolk Island, from nord I'd actually 169 00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:58,520 Sean Aylmer: take them on. 170 00:08:58,679 --> 00:08:59,839 Adam Lang: Strong arm America. 171 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,720 Michael Thompson: How funny is that? Twenty nine percent for Norfolk Island. 172 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,000 Michael Thompson: And I was actually talking to a friend last night 173 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,280 Michael Thompson: who lives on Norfolk Island. I said, hey, how about 174 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,400 Michael Thompson: you getting whack and said, yes, the talk of the 175 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,640 Michael Thompson: town at the moment, and it goes we haven't ever 176 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,000 Michael Thompson: had much of an export market to or from the US, 177 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,800 Michael Thompson: although I do occasionally receive Amazon packages and that's about it. 178 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:19,840 Adam Lang: That's good. 179 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,080 Michael Thompson: I thought was very good. 180 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,720 Adam Lang: So the opportunities for us and sure, and you've made 181 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:27,000 Adam Lang: the point during your broadcast of the podcast is we 182 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,040 Adam Lang: found opportunities elsewhere, like when China stopped wine. We found 183 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,200 Adam Lang: other markets and I think this is really exciting. Don't 184 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,560 Adam Lang: get into a tarer for just go hard on the 185 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,120 Adam Lang: competition for our trade. 186 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,160 Sean Aylmer: Yes, I mean the problem is it it'll slow down 187 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:41,760 Sean Aylmer: the whole world. 188 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,679 Adam Lang: Okay, so that is almost inescapable, right, but we can 189 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:47,319 Adam Lang: work around that. 190 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,400 Sean Aylmer: You are such a half glass full for Australia. 191 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,719 Michael Thompson: You know what I think we need. We actually need 192 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,320 Michael Thompson: more melodrama in your judgment. 193 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,760 Sean Aylmer: Yeah, yeah, yeah, bring I've gone to sleep already. Let's 194 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,800 Sean Aylmer: move on Taris. Forget Taras's not interested. 195 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,920 Michael Thompson: It's gate most remarkable, so I'm already getting appointed. Yeah, 196 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:12,319 Michael Thompson: most remarkable, spirited. Who cares about the Reserve Bank this week? 197 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,839 Michael Thompson: Do you know what happened this week? The Reserve Bank 198 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:20,600 Michael Thompson: Board met? Was anybody paying attention? Does anybody even remember 199 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:27,400 Michael Thompson: it happening? No? Nobody cares, And that is remarkable. Quite frankly, 200 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,520 Michael Thompson: that is the most remarkable thing that happened this week. 201 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,320 Michael Thompson: The fact that the RBA Board met and no one 202 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:37,160 Michael Thompson: is interested. Who cares. We are all focused on bigger things. 203 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,320 Michael Thompson: We are more interested in the potential for these tariffs 204 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,079 Michael Thompson: to potentially trigger multiple interest rate cuts later this year. 205 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:48,839 Michael Thompson: Monday and Tuesday's meeting snaw fest Governor Michelle Bullock saying 206 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,400 Michael Thompson: tariffs could send inflation higher, could send inflation lower. The 207 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,000 Michael Thompson: door was left open to potential rate cuts. The door 208 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,679 Michael Thompson: was left open to potential rate hikes. They want to 209 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,720 Michael Thompson: wait for more information, They want to wait for more data. 210 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:07,480 Michael Thompson: It is entirely, remarkably forgettable. That was the most remarkable. 211 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,680 Sean Aylmer: Okay, I'm going to take I'm going to double down 212 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,840 Sean Aylmer: on this, so you reckon. It's remarkable because no one 213 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:15,120 Sean Aylmer: thought about the Reserve Bank. What's even more remarkable is 214 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,360 Sean Aylmer: absolutely no one who is giving a toss about the 215 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:22,040 Sean Aylmer: election at least point, Adam, Adam, give me one single 216 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,520 Sean Aylmer: policy announcement we've heard from either party this week. 217 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,000 Adam Lang: That's such a good Oh no, no, no. There was 218 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,640 Adam Lang: some aid for some more, some aid for some more. 219 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,760 Adam Lang: W a Dunton, So he's given a hospital more money. 220 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:35,880 Adam Lang: That's happened. 221 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,680 Sean Aylmer: That's a great point. 222 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,199 Michael Thompson: That's all it did happen. 223 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,880 Sean Aylmer: Do you know what it's about about two hundred million 224 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:50,920 Sean Aylmer: dollars probably go. I mean yesterday there was a bit 225 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,680 Sean Aylmer: of money for infrastructures bend and roads and stuff like 226 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,480 Sean Aylmer: that in Western Sydney. Also, I had Albert some point 227 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,600 Sean Aylmer: talking about one point five billion dollars for the Melbourne 228 00:11:58,640 --> 00:11:59,440 Sean Aylmer: Airport railing. 229 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,360 Michael Thompson: Yes, but Adam has just entirely proven your point. 230 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,559 Sean Aylmer: Yeah, no one cares. 231 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,640 Adam Lang: It is it's there's no reform. 232 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,440 Sean Aylmer: There's no reform. Judge US. 233 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:14,120 Michael Thompson: Reform. 234 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,400 Sean Aylmer: Donald Donald Trump is reforming. He is shifting the tax 235 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:22,880 Sean Aylmer: base away from corporates onto the US consumer paying extra tariffs. 236 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,360 Sean Aylmer: That's the sort of reform we need. Parking that for 237 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,920 Sean Aylmer: a moment, remarkable. Absolutely, no one's clocked into the election yet. 238 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:34,280 Sean Aylmer: Now the media has and people love it, but it's 239 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:38,240 Sean Aylmer: just been totally crowded out by tariffs. And like the 240 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,480 Sean Aylmer: Reserve Bank. I'm not going to suggest we go half 241 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,880 Sean Aylmer: half on this Adam to actually make a call, but 242 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,880 Sean Aylmer: both points are well made. No one gives it a 243 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:48,720 Sean Aylmer: toss about the Reserve Bank. No one gives a toss 244 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,600 Sean Aylmer: about the election. It's a toss. 245 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:52,600 Adam Lang: Utral. 246 00:12:54,320 --> 00:13:00,559 Sean Aylmer: I'm not sure bad word, isn't it. It's fraught with 247 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:05,320 Sean Aylmer: remarkable how little we care about really important stuff this week. 248 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:06,840 Michael Thompson: Let's hear. 249 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,160 Adam Lang: So ir doing nothing. They have a history of that. 250 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,719 Adam Lang: So I think this week the slightly more remarkable has 251 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,800 Adam Lang: to be the election that no one cares. Now there's 252 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:21,640 Adam Lang: two broad reasons. One obviously, an election you really sacrifice 253 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,480 Adam Lang: good policy and you just get Paul Barreling, which I 254 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,480 Adam Lang: think has been proven it consistent. 255 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 4: You are no Adam disappointing, disappointing, a learned man like 256 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 4: yourself of middle aged white fitness has to do with anything. 257 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,559 Sean Aylmer: Oh, you are a sitty I would have thought that 258 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,080 Sean Aylmer: you would have learned better. Go on. 259 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,640 Adam Lang: Yes, So I think it has to be that the 260 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,720 Adam Lang: election no one cares because it actually is not having 261 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,760 Adam Lang: much of an impact. So I do think that is 262 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,439 Adam Lang: more remarkable this week. 263 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:07,320 Michael Thompson: I think that is just pure, pure, unadulterated BS. Thank 264 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,160 Michael Thompson: you justin We're going to take a quick break. You 265 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,840 Michael Thompson: know what, though, in the spirit of sportsmanship, I will 266 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,680 Michael Thompson: accept the judgment graciously and move on. So it is now, 267 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,800 Michael Thompson: what are we one and a half to half? So 268 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:21,840 Michael Thompson: I'm still in. 269 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,240 Sean Aylmer: This another high scoring game? 270 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,360 Michael Thompson: That's right. Ah, the tension you can feel it, just 271 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,800 Michael Thompson: crackling in the air. In here one and a half 272 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,320 Michael Thompson: to half, will take a quick break and come back 273 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:39,440 Michael Thompson: with our mystery category. All right, Sean, we have our 274 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,720 Michael Thompson: mystery category. Now it is one and a half to half. 275 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:48,360 Michael Thompson: So this is anybody's anybody's for our mystery category today, Adam, 276 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:54,640 Michael Thompson: we have gone with the best line of the week. Okay, 277 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,720 Michael Thompson: we will not be delivering it in one line. I 278 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,120 Michael Thompson: certainly I don't think I'm capable indeed, but Sean, take 279 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:02,960 Michael Thompson: it away, give us the best line of the week. 280 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:07,640 Sean Aylmer: So this week, an organization called news mac Max. News Max, 281 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,560 Sean Aylmer: a right wing media organization, lists in the New York's 282 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:15,080 Sean Aylmer: Like Exchange two sessions up two thousand, two hundred percent. 283 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:21,360 Sean Aylmer: Now it's a very Donald Trump friendly organization. The founder 284 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,680 Sean Aylmer: a guy called Christopher Ruddy, a bit of a right 285 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,880 Sean Aylmer: wing media mogul. He founded the TV company nineteen ninety eight. 286 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,360 Sean Aylmer: It's now got to mark a capitalization of twenty billion dollars. 287 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,520 Sean Aylmer: That's after the twenty two hundred percent rise in two days. 288 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,160 Sean Aylmer: Now news Corps is worth twenty four billions. It's actually 289 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,560 Sean Aylmer: not much more of the news Corp slight givens the 290 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,840 Sean Aylmer: new one news Max one hundred and seventy one million 291 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:50,520 Sean Aylmer: in revenue. News Corp fourteen big in revenue. We're calling 292 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:56,800 Sean Aylmer: us dollars here, right, So this mister Ruddy, Chris Ruddy 293 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,680 Sean Aylmer: went on to a talk show with a woman called 294 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:04,560 Sean Aylmer: Greta then Suster and on Newsmax, his own thing, and 295 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,000 Sean Aylmer: she asked him about the twenty two hundred percent increase. 296 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:16,960 Sean Aylmer: In his comment, it's pretty significant. It then went on 297 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,000 Sean Aylmer: to say, some people are saying we broke recent records 298 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,600 Sean Aylmer: for the New York Stock Exchange. I think this just 299 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,920 Sean Aylmer: proves the American people really like your show. Talking to Greta, 300 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,240 Sean Aylmer: they like newsmaxs, they trust us, they value us, and 301 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,640 Sean Aylmer: they're encouraging us to gray more. It's pretty significant. Talk 302 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:39,760 Sean Aylmer: about the understatement of the twenty two two sessions. I 303 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:41,960 Sean Aylmer: don't know whether that's ever been done for a company 304 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,600 Sean Aylmer: of that size, that you're getting a twenty billion dollars. 305 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,480 Sean Aylmer: Great line, Christopher Ruddy, great line, Michael over to you. 306 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,240 Michael Thompson: That is a great line, but closer to home and 307 00:16:52,360 --> 00:17:01,320 Michael Thompson: something Adam that you care deeply about. Governance Boss Joe 308 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,560 Michael Thompson: Longo wins this one. 309 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:04,760 Sean Aylmer: We need a death vat. 310 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,960 Michael Thompson: I know gave it everything I had just then and 311 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:13,879 Michael Thompson: it still wasn't enough. This is what Joe Longo, the 312 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:14,800 Michael Thompson: Great Longo families. 313 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,600 Sean Aylmer: What was he what was he referring to? 314 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,840 Michael Thompson: He said, I'll give you the quote first. He was referring, 315 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:20,480 Michael Thompson: of course, to. 316 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:23,080 Sean Aylmer: Governance. 317 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,000 Michael Thompson: There does appear to be an outbreak of issues in 318 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:32,119 Michael Thompson: the bedroom migrating to the boardroom. What happens in people's 319 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,240 Michael Thompson: personal lives is a matter for them. What the issue 320 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:38,800 Michael Thompson: for me and the regulator is if that alleged misbehavior 321 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,919 Michael Thompson: starts to impact good governance at the board level and 322 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,360 Michael Thompson: becomes a distraction. And if that's the case, that might 323 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,160 Michael Thompson: be something we're interested in. Look, really, I probably didn't 324 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:48,600 Michael Thompson: need all the rest of it. The first part is 325 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:49,240 Michael Thompson: the important part. 326 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:50,879 Sean Aylmer: Again, it was a great line. 327 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,520 Michael Thompson: There does appear to be an outbreak of issues in 328 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,359 Michael Thompson: the bedroom migrating to the boardroom. I don't want to 329 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,920 Michael Thompson: think about any kind of bedroom outbreak of any kind. 330 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,520 Michael Thompson: But wise Tech Global here is the biggest concern.
