Good morning Adam Sewan. The 14 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: main story this morning. It has been twenty four hours 15 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: of records on financial mark makes on Wall Street, and 16 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: Video became the first company ever to be valued at 17 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 1: over US four trillion dollars. In crypto markets, Bitcoin reached 18 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: a new high, and that's despite global economic uncertainty and 19 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 1: locally one of the best performing stocks of the last year. 20 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: Imaging group Promedicus hits another record, forcing its way into 21 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: the top twenty stocks for the first time. Sean tell 22 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: us about it. 23 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 2: Given all the uncertainty around tariffs and global growth and trade, 24 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 2: the performance of the assets you just went through has 25 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 2: been nothing short of exceptional. It reflects a seeming underlying 26 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: optimism that despite what's going on out there, particularly in 27 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 2: the US, things are okay, and video pushed beyond the 28 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: four to Trilly News dollar mark valuation, which is about 29 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 2: six point one trillion Ossie dollars. It closed slightly below that, 30 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 2: but it's the first time any company has hit that mark. 31 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 2: To put it into some perspective, that's more than twice 32 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: the value of the total mark capitalization of all the 33 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 2: top two hundred stocks in the AX, So we are 34 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: talking massive. Nvidia is up more than twenty percent this year, 35 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 2: more than one thousand percent since the beginning of twenty 36 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 2: twenty three. It now accounts for a massive seven and 37 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 2: a half percent of the S and P five hundred, 38 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 2: and the next biggest stock on wall streets Microsoft with 39 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 2: about three point seven trillion dollars now. The latest cutalyst 40 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 2: for Nvidia has been a commitment to artificial intelligence spending 41 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 2: from some of its biggest customers, showing the demand for 42 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 2: its computing systems remain strong and includes places like Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, Alphabet. 43 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 2: They're projected to put about three hundred and fifty billion 44 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 2: US in the capital expenditure in their upcoming fiscal years 45 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 2: and Nvidia is a big winner from that. 46 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: And speaking of incredible, Sean, what is behind bitcoin pushing 47 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: beyond US one hundred and twelve thousand dollars for the 48 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: first time. 49 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 2: Wish I knew, Adam, Whish I knew. I mean, there's 50 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: just there's broad support for risks and that swept up 51 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 2: tech stocks as well as cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin, of course, is 52 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 2: the original crypto asset. It's up twenty percent this year. 53 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 2: An Less say that institutional demand for bitcoin is surging, 54 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 2: not just retail demand. That gives it some sustainability. Still, 55 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,799 Speaker 2: it's a risk asset and we are in pretty risky 56 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 2: times at the moment. Other cryptos have also done well, 57 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 2: as have exchanged traded funds on Wall Street and in 58 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 2: Australia and other places. I think the fact that bitcoin 59 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: is training over one hundred and twelve thousand USL has 60 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 2: unit for the first time. Is the slight mystery. 61 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: It's spectacular too, isn't it incredible? Now? Sean finally back 62 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: home pro Medicus. It keeps going from strength to strength. 63 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 2: It's an imaging provider to hospitals and healthcare groups. The 64 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 2: way I think about pro Medicus because many people will 65 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 2: never have heard of this company, right, it basically brings 66 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 2: X rays into the twenty first century. So no longer 67 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: are you carrying those big films all over in those 68 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: big envelopes. Right what it's visage radiology software mostly used 69 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 2: in North American hospitals. Basically, laos are really efficient viewing, 70 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 2: in interpreting of scans and transmission of scans, and it 71 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,119 Speaker 2: has been a bit of a game changer in that industry. 72 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 2: Promedicus is one of the best performing stocks on the 73 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 2: A six two hundred over the last year, up one 74 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 2: hundred and forty percent. That's on the back of a 75 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 2: bunch of contract wins in the US and support from 76 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 2: fund managers who suddenly see the potential of this company. 77 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 2: One thing that Promedicus has done, it's market cap has 78 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 2: risen so much so quickly that a bunch of index 79 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 2: funds have sort of been clan bring to actually get 80 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 2: stock because it's it's not a household name. I mean, 81 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 2: it's now a top twenty stock. It's bigger than Zero, 82 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 2: bigger than Coal's, bigger than Santos, bigger than Aria, market 83 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 2: cap of thirty three billion dollars, twice the size of Quantus. 84 00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 2: Quite a phenomenal effort from Promedicus. 85 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: Shorn apart from Promedicus, and it is an incredible story. 86 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: How did the local market perform yesterday? 87 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 2: Well, there's in PA six two hundred finished up more 88 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 2: than half a percent to eight five hundred and eighty 89 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 2: nine points. It's back training close to record levels. That's 90 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 2: on the back of hopes of local interest rate cuts. 91 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 2: Also strong Wall Street. It's school holidays, Adam, as you know, 92 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 2: boys are at home at the moment. Trading's lighter than 93 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: normal now. In terms of the sub indices, yesterday, Materials, 94 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 2: industrials and real estate did best. Healthcare index was worse. 95 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 2: In fact, only two of the top twenty companies ended 96 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 2: in the red. One was CSL and the back of 97 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 2: tariff concerns on pharmaceuticals, the other wise Sigma Healthcare Woodside 98 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 2: was flat. The other seventeen of the top twenty all rows. 99 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: Not a bad day, And Sean tell us about the 100 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: global markets well. 101 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 2: In terms of numbers. Oil prices have risen in recent days, 102 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: Brent's training around seventy US dollars of barrel, goals training 103 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 2: around thirty three twenty US dollars announce, and that mighty 104 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 2: Aussie dollar buying just under sixty five and a half 105 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 2: US since. 106 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: If you want to read about all of that, plus 107 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: a bit more in Sean's opinions, sign up on our 108 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 1: website to the newsletter. It's out this morning. It is 109 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: another belter of a newsletter. We'll be back in a 110 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 1: moment with the rest of the day's business news. Sean 111 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: universities and arts bodies will lose government funding if they 112 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: failed to combat anti Semitic bigotry from staff, students and artists. 113 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: And this is part of a new federal strategy to 114 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: combat the wave of attacks against Jewish Australians. 115 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:39,119 Speaker 2: Yesterday, Prime Minister Anthony Albernezi, Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke 116 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 2: and Special Envoy on Anti Semitism Gillian Siegel announced the plan, 117 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 2: saying Australian border Force officials will be trained to spot 118 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,239 Speaker 2: and deport anti Semites. The announcement comes after a government 119 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 2: commission report by MS Siegel showing anti Jewish sentiment in 120 00:06:55,960 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 2: Australia has risen to deeply troubling levels. The report includes 121 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 2: a push to adopt the national standard definition of anti 122 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 2: Jewish bigotry. It's part of a strategy to combat the 123 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 2: wave of attacks against Jewish Australians in recent months, including 124 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: alleged anti Semitic attacks in Melbourne last weekend. MS Siegel 125 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 2: said anti Semitism was once marginalized, but had increasingly become 126 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: a mainstream threat, challenging national values and public safety. 127 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: Sean, the Prime Minister, was also asked yesterday about Donald 128 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: Trump's plan to introduce two hundred percent tariffs on pharmaceuticals, 129 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: which would put at risk two billion dollars worth of 130 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: drug sales from Australia into North America. 131 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: Mister Ailmenezi went straight into a discussion about the Pharmaceutical 132 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 2: Benefit Scheme, which subsidizes the cost of drugs in Australia. 133 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 2: He said, we won't be compromised in trade talks with 134 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 2: the US when it comes to the PBS. The background 135 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 2: to that US drug makers have complained to the White 136 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 2: House about having slow access to the Australian market, saying 137 00:07:55,200 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 2: the Pharmaceutical Benefit Scheme often subsidizes cheaper generic products over affairs. 138 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 2: The fear is that Donald Trump uses that as a 139 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 2: reason to lump Australian goods with higher tariffs. Given what 140 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 2: he's done, that is fair to be concerned about that. 141 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 2: Another point of contention at the moment is the government's 142 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 2: Media Bargaining Code, which forces big tech to pay media 143 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 2: companies for content. Now that the Prime Minister has said 144 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 2: that's also not up for negotiation. Of course, we haven't 145 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 2: had any negotiations with the US, so until that happens, 146 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,119 Speaker 2: we'll have to wait and see Shawn. 147 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: An investigation by anti corruption barrister Jeffrey Watson sc has 148 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: found the CFMEU in Queensland deliberately inflicted physical, sexual, emotional 149 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: and economic abuse on others, from labor politicians to public 150 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: servants and rival unionists, including women and children. 151 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 2: Quite incredible findings. The investigation accused the group's former Queensland 152 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 2: leadership of overseeing a regime that was violent, cruel, misogynistic 153 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 2: and targeted family members as fair game. Media hoarding union sources, 154 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 2: saying six organizers have now been removed from their roles 155 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 2: at the CFMEU. The forty five page investigation details dozens 156 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 2: of incidents, and Watson said he fears it only scratches 157 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 2: the service. He described the union violence as childish and cowardly, 158 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 2: but said far and away the worst hypocrisy from the 159 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 2: CFMEU relates to its treatment of women. 160 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: Sean the private equity owners of some of Australia's oldest 161 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: and best known magazine brands, The Australian Women's Weekly, Better 162 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: Homes and Gardens, New Idea in Women's Day, They've been 163 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: put up for sale. 164 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 2: Have you ever read any of those? Adam? 165 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: I haven't bought one, but I reckon I've sat in 166 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: so many waiting rooms where I've thumbed through one. 167 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, or two, I would totally agree. I remember years 168 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 2: ago my mother used to buy the English Women's Weekly. 169 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 2: Shouldn't buy the Australian Woman's Weekly, the English Women's Weekly. 170 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 1: Just to keep retire the Northern Hemisphere. 171 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not sure.
