The next twelve months will 22 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 3: see a surge in prices, three cuts in interest rates 23 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,919 Speaker 3: this year, rising household incomes and a wave of first 24 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 3: home by demand under the expanded first Home guarantee scheme 25 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 3: will push prices higher. However, by the end of twenty 26 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 3: twenty six, new supply will hit the market and affordability 27 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,199 Speaker 3: issues will again become prominent, so the surge is likely 28 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 3: to taper into twenty twenty seven. 29 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,119 Speaker 2: That's all.

Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth prices have been 35 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 3: surging for a couple of years now. Now they're tipped 36 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 3: to still rise, but at a much much lower pace 37 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 3: of four or five percent. Demain reckons that the rush 38 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 3: of first home buyers competing with investors will inject new 39 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 3: energy into the market, and they're calling that the equivalent 40 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 3: of five infrastrate cuts at once. Wow, could you imagine 41 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 3: if you actually cut interest rates by one point to 42 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 3: five percentage points. 43 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's an extraordinary amount of competition going to the market. 44 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 3: The bad news for renters really is that after a 45 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 3: reprieve this year, they're likely to do it tough with 46 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 3: rents accelerating again across the country over the next twelve 47 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 3: months or so. 48 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: It's interesting that a lot of this kind of forecast 49 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: is based on a significant amount of supply coming in 50 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: towards the end of next year, isn't it, which may 51 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: be a little optimistic, yes, or. 52 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 3: Maybe it's pessimistic that it's going to take that much 53 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 3: time to get The construction sector is actually doing okay 54 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 3: at the moment.

Hopefully that will take 61 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 3: some pressure off. 62 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: And I suppose you have kind of good visibility over 63 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,239 Speaker 1: what is expected to come online because you need building 64 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: approvals and everything that happen a long way ahead of 65 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: the property is actually becoming available. 66 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly right. 67 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: Okay, so the outlook then is good then based on 68 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: these prices, But what about the spring selling season season 69 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: which which actually ends this week. We are on the 70 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: verge of summer, sean. 71 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 3: I know, when I was thinking about the spring selling 72 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 3: season finishing in a week's time, I thought that means 73 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 3: we must be in summer. And that is ridiculous. 74 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: Yep, yep. It has come around very very quickly. It's 75 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: just it is alarming how fast twenty twenty five has gone. 76 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 3: Yes, I reckon the market has just run out of 77 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 3: steam a bit now that, according to Totality figures, the 78 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 3: preliminary clearance rate for auctions over the past week back 79 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 3: below seventy percent first time in more than five months. 80 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 3: Plenty of homes going up for auction, about three thousand 81 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: across the country over the past week, about thirty four 82 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 3: hundred this coming week, but the proportion of sales are 83 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 3: just declining. Both Sydney and Melbourne have fallen under that 84 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 3: seventy percent mark. Brisbane was at its lowest in eight weeks. 85 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 3: The consensus view among market economists and housing experts is 86 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 3: that the steam is coming out just a little bit, 87 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 3: but they do think prices will rise. It's just there's 88 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 3: a bit of nervousness around the place. 89 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, it does seem to be the case now, Sean, Sean, 90 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: the big week in retail, and I know you're a 91 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 1: shop I was kind of hesitating here because we talked 92 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: about this yesterday on Ask Fear and Greed on Sunday, 93 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: right about the fact that you're not a huge shopper necessarily, 94 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: and Adam Lang, our Fear and Greet colleague, was in 95 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: on this conversation, and we're giving our best tips to 96 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: make the most of the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales. 97 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: You could probably you would struggle to find three less 98 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 1: qualified people to give shopping tips, but we did it. Anyway. 99 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: More than six point eight billion dollars is expected to 100 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: be spent over the next week, which is a staggering figure. 101 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 2: Yes. 102 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 3: In fact, the six point eight billion dollars figure is 103 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 3: what Roy Morgan has estimated for the four days from 104 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 3: Friday to next Monday. 105 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 2: Wow, so I. 106 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 3: Think you're probably going to get close to eight billion dollars. 107 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 3: You know, on back and ronvelope calculation that one there 108 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 3: has been a shift in spending day I think this 109 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 3: is really interesting. So a survey by Boston Consulting Group, 110 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 3: one of the big consulting groups out there, suggests people 111 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 3: are now using the sales more for essential items rather 112 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 3: than big ticket goods, so rather than buying TVs, and 113 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 3: that they might load up on toilet power I think 114 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 3: was one of the examples that BCG gave. The Boston 115 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 3: Consultant Group work also shows the amount needed to discount 116 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 3: items to draw in customers, particularly Millennial and gen Z's 117 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 3: really range. So, for example, a consumer will think a 118 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 3: clothing and shoe sale is a good deal if they 119 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 3: can get a thirty six percent discount, athletic equipment you 120 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 3: can get a twenty eight percent discount, then it's. 121 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 2: A good deal. 122 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 3: So it goes through all these different categories. And I've 123 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 3: just given you the two outlies there of when people 124 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 3: think the deal is good. Oh, hothing and shoes thirty 125 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 3: six percent, sporting goods twenty eight percent. 126 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 1: God, the science behind it is really quite something, isn't it. 127 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's quite spectacular. 128 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. Now, speaking of spectacular, a heck of a week 129 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 1: last week on the Mark on the local share market 130 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: and also on Wall Street. The local Boss set for 131 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 1: a bounce when it opens this morning, with futures training 132 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 1: suggesting it'll jump by one percent. That comes after a 133 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: one point six percent tumble on Friday. 134 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 3: Okay, so, Wall Street surged over the weekend on the 135 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 3: back of hopes of another rate cut in the world's 136 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 3: largest economy. The New York fred Fed president John Williams, 137 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 3: who's quite an influential guy. Over the weekend, he said 138 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 3: there was room to ease borrowing costs in the near term. 139 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 3: Traders have now priced in a seventy percent chances of 140 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 3: a rate cut in the US next month. That sent 141 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 3: Wall Street higher. That should help us going the opposite direction. Bitcoin, 142 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 3: it tumbled to eighty thousand US dollars a unit over 143 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 3: the weekend. It lost about twenty five percent of its 144 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 3: value this month alone. In commodities, goals trading around four 145 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 3: thousand and sixty eight US dollars and out sign ores 146 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 3: about one hundred and four US dollars a ton, saying 147 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 3: above that one hundred dollar mark. Brent oil settled at 148 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 3: about sixty four US dollars barrel over the weekend, as 149 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 3: trade has weighed the prospect of a peace deal between 150 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 3: Russia and the Ukraine the main local economic data out 151 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 3: this week, Michael, the October inflation data, which everyone will 152 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 3: be keenly watching. 153 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: That's very exciting, and we talk about this and fearing 154 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: greed Q and A the week ahead this morning with 155 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: our resident economist Stephen could call us and particularly exciting 156 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: because it is the first of the expanded monthly data sets, 157 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: which is which is really quite Stephen even got me 158 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: very excited about that, about the fact that this is 159 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: suddenly a much broader look at where the price pressures 160 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: are in the economy. 161 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 3: So what's really exciting about that is that we have 162 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 3: We've got the September quarter inflation figure that was much 163 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 3: higher than expected, changes everyone's view. But from this month, 164 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 3: the October figure, because it is so much broader, it 165 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 3: will be much richer than previous months, so we won't 166 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 3: have to wait for the quarterly figure to work out 167 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 3: what's going on. 168 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 169 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 1: Indeed, and Stephen's explanation of kind of then how you're 170 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: going to how we can use that as a comparison 171 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: with the previous month as well, considering the ABS has 172 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: actually done something quite clever with running parallel sets of 173 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: data along the whole period, so well worth a lesson. 174 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: It's coming up a bit later on. In the meantime, 175 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: we're going to take a quick break back in a 176 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: moment with the rest of the day's business sewn. Prime 177 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: Minister Anthony Albernezi and other world leaders issued a declaration 178 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: at the G twenty summit in South Africa over the weekend, 179 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: backing the Paris Climate Change Agreement, endorsing net zero climate 180 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: emissions by the middle of the century, and praising free trade. 181 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 3: The federal government also signed up to a voluntary statement 182 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 3: calling for a plan to eventually phase out fossil fuel. 183 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,599 Speaker 3: The G twenty summit was controversial from the beginning, with 184 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 3: US President Donald Trump boycotting the conference in Johannesburg following 185 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,719 Speaker 3: months of accusations that South Africa was discriminating against minority, 186 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 3: minority white Africanas. The meeting overlapped with the end of 187 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 3: COP thirty in Brazil. Its final communicat well, it wasn't 188 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 3: what many people had hoped for. I suppose it didn't 189 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,319 Speaker 3: mention fossil fuels for example. However, did introduce global trade 190 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 3: as an issue, clearly a swipe at Donald Trump. That 191 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 3: one alban Easy said it was a good thing that 192 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 3: all the cop summit participants had been able to agree 193 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 3: on a communicat even it was a bit disappointing, saying 194 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 3: it was a positive sign that the world wanted to 195 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 3: get on with communicating with each other. 196 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: And while I was still on politics, the Federal Labor 197 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: Party has widened its lead over the opposition In the 198 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,719 Speaker 1: latest News poll in the Australian. The government has a 199 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: head fifty eight percent to forty two percent on a 200 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,559 Speaker 1: two party preferred basis. That's a solid margin. 201 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 3: More than the length of the Strait. When it comes 202 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 3: to politics, well done. Core support for the coalition is 203 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 3: static at just twenty four percent, its lowest level since 204 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 3: primary voters were first counted in November nineteen eighty five. 205 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 3: So we've got forty years of records. This is at 206 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 3: the lowest point of those records. Opposition leader Susan Lee's 207 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 3: approval rating has risen slightly, from minus thirty three to 208 00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 3: minus twenty nine. The Pole says Andrew Hasty, he has 209 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 3: emerged as the most popular preferred opposition leader. They were 210 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 3: almost half of all respondents to the survey didn't know 211 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 3: who they preferred, so I don't think it's fair to 212 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 3: say Andrew Hasty is the front runner at all One 213 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,319 Speaker 3: Nation was really the winner. We've seen that in the 214 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 3: last couple of polls it recorded a record high fifteen 215 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 3: percent primary vat. 216 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, that those figures for Andrew Hasty and Susan Lee 217 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: is pretty damning overall for the entire coalition because he 218 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: had Susan Lee on twenty one percent as preferred, Andrew 219 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: Hasty on fifteen percent, and then forty six percent saying 220 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: they don't actually know, So forty six percent compared to 221 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: the actual person who is currently doing the job at 222 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: twenty one percent, and so it's like that that sounds 223 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: disastrous really. Moving on away from politics, passengers on Australian 224 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: Airlines SEAN will no longer be able to use power 225 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: banks during flights in a crackdown aimed at preventing cabin fires. 226 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 3: The move's match action taken by international aviation authorities this year. 227 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 3: They kick in next month and cover Virgin Quantisan jets. 228 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 3: Airlines and passengers should store spare batteries and personal electronic 229 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 3: devices in the seat pocket or under the seat in 230 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 3: front of them. They can carry up the two power banks, 231 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 3: but they can't use them. Basically, the changes come after 232 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 3: a lithium batteries stored in an overhead baggage compartment caught 233 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 3: fire during a Virgin Australia flight from Sydney to Hoe 234 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 3: but earlier in the year the cabin filled with smoke, 235 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 3: and that one last week, one hundred and fifty people 236 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 3: were evacuated from Quantits's Melbourne business class lounge after a 237 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 3: passenger's battery caught fire while charging. Now, the International Air 238 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 3: Transport Association recommends that if passengers need to pack a 239 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 3: personal electronic device in their check baggage, they must be 240 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 3: completely switched off, not be packed inflammable liquids such as perfumes, 241 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 3: clones and aerosols. 242 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: Keep it in mind, it always worries me. 243 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 3: I'd actually prefer to have all those things close by 244 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 3: rather than packed away in the cellway. 245 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: Oh completely agree, but I'm also alarmed by the fact 246 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: that they're changing these rules, but they'll take effects next month. 247 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: You know what, if it's a enough to change the rules, yes, 248 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: effective immediately. I think it's a good idea. Now, why 249 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: set Global held its AGM on Friday and mid calls 250 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: from the Australian Shareholders Association FORIGN battled CEO Richard White 251 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: to take a one year sabbatical. 252 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 3: Let's face it, that ain't going to happen anyway. Why 253 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 3: did you get emotional at the meeting? It's kind of 254 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 3: interesting he shed a tear when talking about the business 255 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 3: which he started. The emotion didn't prevent a strike against 256 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 3: the remuneration report. Why reconfirmed revenue guidance? Lead director Andrew Harrison? 257 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 3: Remember Richard White's executive chair. So the lead director round 258 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 3: the meeting, Andrew Harrison. So the AGM was a time 259 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 3: for us to reflect, to be transparent, and to thank 260 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 3: you a shareholders for the trust you continue to place 261 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 3: in this company. 262 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 2: Harrison says. 263 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 3: The board and management are cooperating with authorities and making 264 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 3: decisions to protect wise texts, stability and long term success. 265 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: All right, turning to international news now, Sean, don't mean 266 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: to sound exasperated at the goings on, going on, goings 267 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: on adwis Tech Global, but yeah, anyway. 268 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 3: Well this next story is equally exasperating, especially if you're 269 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 3: a Ukrainian. 270 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, indeed, this is international news now. Ukraine's Western allies 271 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: have called for quote, additional work on a US Russia 272 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 1: peace plan and for the EU and NATO to be 273 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: given a say over its contents as they seek to 274 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: delay the terms that are being forced on Kiev. 275 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 3: Fourteen leaders from countries that include European states plus Japan, 276 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 3: Canada and Australia said that the initial draft of the 277 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 3: twenty eight point plan includes important elements that will be 278 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 3: essential for a just and lasting peace, but more work 279 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 3: is needed. The meeting between the leaders and the sidelines 280 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 3: of the G twenty summit was called in response to 281 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 3: a demand from Donald Trump's administration that Ukraine agreed to 282 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 3: the twenty eight point proposal by Thursday. 283 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 2: This week, US. 284 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 3: Officials warned that there was little room to negotiate a 285 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,479 Speaker 3: plan described by European officials as a capitulation to Moscow. 286 00:14:55,760 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 3: Speaking after the meeting, German Chancellor Frederick Merz told reporters 287 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 3: and he sounded quite sensible. He said, wars cannot be 288 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 3: ended by great powers over the heads of the affected countries. 289 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 2: Kind of makes sense. 290 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 3: He added that any solution must involve the consent of 291 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 3: Ukraine and Europe. 292 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 2: According to the. 293 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 3: FT, the US has warned Kiev that if it does 294 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 3: not agree to the plan, which demands that Ukraine relinquish 295 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 3: territory pledged never to join NATO and shrinks its armed forces, 296 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 3: it risks losing critical military and intelligence support. 297 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: Now in the UK, Sean Daily Mail owner DMgt has 298 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: done a five hundred million pounds deal to buy rival 299 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: newspaper The Telegraph, in a tie up that will create 300 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: one of the most powerful right leaning media groups in Britain. 301 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 2: Shall I have a Rupert Murdoch?
