A quick rundown 7 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 1: on what this show is about. It is different to 8 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,159 Speaker 1: the weekday show. The weekend show is all about the 9 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: two of us working through a series of categories and 10 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 1: nominating a story in each one. And the categories are 11 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: the biggest story of the week, are the most remarkable 12 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: business story, a mystery category that we change every week, 13 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: and our favorite business related story. And it is a competition. 14 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: It is like old fashioned high school debating, except well 15 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 1: without the skill. Yeah, and with more sledging and yeah, 16 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: a lot more vitriol. But we need a judge. We 17 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: need an adjudicator to pick a winner. And that judge is, 18 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: as always, our very studious Fear and Greed colleague, Adam Langy, 19 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: brings his marking sheets into the studio every week. 20 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 3: Adam good Morning, Good Morning, Michael, Good morning, Sean. 21 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 1: Morning Now for the benefit of new listeners, but also 22 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 1: for our own benefit.

Well, because it's 25 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 2: just ridiculous. He just asks me. 26 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 3: Well, it's a very rigid criteria that I interpret liberally 27 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 3: every week. 28 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 1: So Number one, it's a pity that microphones can't pick 29 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: up eye roll. 30 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 2: That's right, I. 31 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 4: Could hear them. 32 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, So we have topicality, timeliness. I really 33 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 3: want economic impact to feature in the stories. Of course, 34 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,839 Speaker 3: play a little bit to my subjective bias. The mention 35 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 3: of the word reform would be good. And then melodrama. 36 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, we can deliver on all of those. 37 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: Let's get straight into it. The biggest story of the week. 38 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: There was only one big story this week, and that was, 39 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: of course, the launch of the Fear and Greed daily newsletter. 40 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 3: Who where Sean is full of glee? 41 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 4: What a week to kick off our daily newsletter. 42 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 2: You had me updating it, you had me doing all 43 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 2: sorts of things I didn't expect to be doing. 44 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 4: That's terrific. 45 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: Anyway, if you haven't subscribed, I've hijacked the start of 46 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: the show. Clearly, head along to fearangreed dot com dot 47 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,839 Speaker 1: au and pop your email address in and you too 48 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: can take part in Sean's glee every day. Let's get 49 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: onto the real biggest story of the week. Once again, 50 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: there actually was only one big story this week, Sean, 51 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: would you like to kick us off? We are colluding 52 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: a little bit on this week. 53 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: Including but you need to judge good right, the big 54 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 2: story it's really over the last ten days. It's more 55 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 2: than a week. 56 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 3: So who sells it better? 57 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, We've got because we actually have 58 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 5: a different opinion about what the most important part of 59 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 5: the story is good. 60 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 2: So, without a doubt, the biggest part of the story 61 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: is the implementation of tariffs them kicking in, which happened 62 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 2: this week, and what happened to markets, which actually started 63 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 2: late last week but followed through this week. Wall Street 64 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 2: lost literally trillions of dollars in value. In fact, on 65 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 2: one day we had markets down ten percent. That is 66 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 2: phenomenal outside COVID GFC just doesn't happen In Australia, we 67 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 2: lost about two hundred billion dollars over three sessions, all 68 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 2: on the back of Donald Trump saying we are going 69 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 2: to implement tariffs against countries he had his leaderboard made 70 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 2: no sense whatsoever. The way they calculated everyone agreed on 71 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: that calculated. The tariffs kicked in. You had China coming 72 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: back with retaliatory tariffs. Donald Trump came back hit more 73 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 2: tariffs one hundred and four percent at one point. There 74 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: the fact that he instituted these tariffs ad nauseum. Ad nauseum, 75 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 2: don't know that's right word. Yeah, with abandons. 76 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 4: Whenever you want, Just there you go. 77 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 2: What it did to global markets phenomenal. The Aussie dollar 78 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 2: under sixty cents, the whole lot, that is by far 79 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,679 Speaker 2: the biggest story. And just think of how much money 80 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 2: was lost. You want an economic impact, money lost? 81 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 4: Michael Sewn, that is important. That was all very important. 82 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 4: I mean to understate that egan to be. 83 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,839 Speaker 1: But I respectfully put to you that the implementation of 84 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: the tariffs is all now largely. 85 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 4: Irrelevant because of the backflip. 86 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: The backflip by Donald Trump early Thursday morning announcing a 87 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: pause on most of those reciprocal tariffs. Ninety days of 88 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: breathing space for countries like Vietnam and Cambodia and Japan 89 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 1: and countries in the EU or with big tariffs reduced 90 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: to just that the ten percent base rate imposed on 91 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: good friends like a markets took off Wall Street up 92 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 1: more than ten percent, the best day since the GFC 93 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: ASX best day in five years. 94 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 4: He had to do it. 95 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: He bowed to pressure, really, the pressure on financial markets, 96 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: including US government bonds, just too much. And the acknowledge 97 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: it like the quote was so interesting, wasn't it, The 98 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: one about the thought that people were jumping a little 99 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: bit out of line, they were getting a little bit yippy, 100 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: a little bit afraid yippy. 101 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: Presume it's like golfing term getting the yips when you're yeah, 102 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 2: I presume that's where yippe comes from. 103 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:34,039 Speaker 4: Probably right. 104 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: But but but but but actually you can have four 105 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: you know what at the moment, keep it going. But 106 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: but but China, China did not show enough respect, did they. 107 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: So they they got tariffs of one hundred and twenty 108 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: five percent, which actually then turned out to be one 109 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: hundred and forty five percent once the calculations were redone 110 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: by the White House and just actually remembered actually already 111 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: put twenty percent on, so it's one hundred and forty five. 112 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 4: Yeah. And then of course, as the invitation as well 113 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 4: for countries to continue to negotiate, and they can even 114 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 4: get countries like Australia can get lower than the ten 115 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 4: percent that we already have, depending on what's in it 116 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 4: for the United States. 117 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 2: Really, so I like the join hands bit too. I 118 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 2: think we should add that into it. 119 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that is a good point, the fact that 120 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 1: we could potentially join hands with China to present a 121 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: united front against the US in a trade war, which 122 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: just all sounds very and. 123 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 2: Then we open reopen free trade negotiations with the European Union. 124 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 2: The world has changed. I like this. This is a 125 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:33,840 Speaker 2: big effort, but at the end of the day, right 126 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 2: is the implementation or the change bigger? How do you 127 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 2: judge that? Well, I would just say that the share 128 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 2: markets down five percent from when it started to where 129 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: it is now. 130 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: If you are insisting that Adam needs to judge it, 131 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 1: then we can get technical and say that technically the 132 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: implementation was the previous week. 133 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 2: Just to say, so, when did the karts kick off? 134 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: Well, I mean they were announced the previous when they 135 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: kick off, but they kicked off and. 136 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 4: They were only. 137 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: But Adam involved in this backflip temporary reprieve. 138 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,239 Speaker 4: Market tumbled again. 139 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: Trade war continues, backflip, backflip, backflip. 140 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 4: It is all about the backflip. 141 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 3: Thank you, Michael, Probably one hundred years worth of stories 142 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 3: in the last couple of weeks. Certainly the implementation this 143 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 3: week happened. The backflip happened. I think what is left 144 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 3: behind sewn and you underline this in particular doing fear 145 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 3: and greed all the time, is the uncertainty remains. And 146 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 3: so I think the original kicking in of the tariffs 147 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 3: is the biggest element of this. It was wiping out trillions. 148 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 3: It's still making its way back, but who knows where this. 149 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 4: Is going to go. 150 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 3: So, yes, Sewan wins. 151 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: I am a good spot. I accept the judgment that 152 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: that is a fair decision. However, during your judgment, during 153 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: your judgment, Sean was sticking his finger up at me. 154 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 4: He was mean to you. He was he was. 155 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 2: Mean, respectful winner, but I'm not. 156 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 3: Can you knock an occasional gloat? 157 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: Can you knock a couple of points off for the 158 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: finger with the story is so good? 159 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:26,239 Speaker 4: It does stand, Yeah, it does. Look what he's talking about, Michael, 160 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 4: Fine today this topic. 161 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 2: Right now, I wouldn't extend it for the whole. 162 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 1: The most remarkable story politics, politics, politics. 163 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 4: We are in an election campaign. We are getting closer 164 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 4: and closer and closer, and guess what, we're actually getting 165 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 4: some policies. Now. 166 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: Who would have thought we're into what week two or 167 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: three of the campaign. 168 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 4: We're finally hearing what they stand for. 169 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: The coalition had policies on gas and energy and a 170 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: twenty billion dollar future fund for the Bush. We had 171 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: labor with it, a two point three billion dollar home 172 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: battery program, and a stack of money for mental health 173 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 1: funding as well. The headline though, the of this week 174 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 1: was the debate. We love a good debate, but I 175 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: don't know if this was one of those, right. It 176 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,199 Speaker 1: was fairly humorless, It was fairly just kind of run. 177 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: It was a bit run of the mill, and I 178 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: don't necessarily think it's a bad thing, because you just 179 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: you do want steady hands debating the future of the country. 180 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: You don't want the erratic kind of nature of the 181 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: Trump v. Biden debate where it was descending into discussion 182 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: of who had the best golf swing and just like 183 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: really quite personal sledging against against the two. So in 184 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: a way that was actually quite good to see that 185 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: it was very boring what. 186 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 2: Are you trying to get the remarkable part of it? 187 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,839 Speaker 4: Oh? I'm getting to it all right, right, right, I'm 188 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 4: hoping Toil is still listening. No, no, no, they're listening. 189 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: They're listening because they are expecting something big, and I 190 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: am really sorry, I'm going to disappoint. It is quite remarkable, right, 191 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: this entire campaign. Finally we are getting some policies. Finally 192 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: we've had a debate, the thrilling debate that we had, 193 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: but the fact that this is all happening under the heavy, 194 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: heavy shadow of tariffs and questions about whether we should 195 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: partner up with China in a trade war against the US. 196 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: This is a remarkable and weird election campaign. It is 197 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: remarkable for those reasons. 198 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 2: You say it enough, it becomes remarkable. 199 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: I feel like that's the only way I can convince 200 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: that m it's just if I keep reminding him of 201 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: the category remarkable election campaign. 202 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 4: It has been remarkable, surely remarkable. 203 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 2: What else has been remarkable is that there's been corporate 204 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 2: news happening that Adam has not been taking any notice 205 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 2: on whatsoever. And it is some remarkable stuff happening. I mean, 206 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 2: we've had the Board of Star and Entertainment agreeing to 207 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 2: Dexino over to Bally's Corporation in three hundred million dollar deal. 208 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 2: Pretty remarkable. That's because it did everything it could do, 209 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 2: handed over to Bully's Corporation and eventually did Bell's end 210 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 2: up with about fifty seven percent of the company. We 211 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 2: had James Harding imploding the chair and Lloyd major institutional 212 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 2: investors about the backlash over Hardy's deal to merge with 213 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 2: US based AASEC, which is a decking company. Truly interesting 214 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 2: stuff X. 215 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:27,479 Speaker 1: So far we're talking building materials and DEXX gambling. 216 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 2: There's quite that. I mean, that share price is down. 217 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 2: It's hard to judge how much is the market and 218 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,559 Speaker 2: how much is the deal. It's down about thirty five 219 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 2: percent because they've got a raise billions of dollars. The 220 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 2: number is really important. We just sort of sup. 221 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 4: But people are hating on this thing. 222 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, they are hating it. It's a forteen billion dollar merger. 223 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 2: People are hating on it. That's a really good way 224 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 2: of putting it. You know what's incredible though, under the deal, 225 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 2: actual James Hardy shareholders don't get a vote. AX shareholders 226 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 2: get a vote, but not James hard and James Hardy 227 00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 2: is the one doing that lifting. 228 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: It's actually little wonder that shareholders are feeling completely jibbed 229 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: down this Yeah, like we want to say in the 230 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: future of our company and the fact that you're going 231 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: to spend this fortune. 232 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: And in the market, Valley's down five billion dollars or 233 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 2: something of the announcement's ridiculous market. 234 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: And in any other week that would be a remarkable story. 235 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 2: The other thing, which is really remarkable is how industrial 236 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 2: property is getting on the notes because everyone has loved 237 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 2: industrial property since COVID, because we all went online and 238 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 2: needed fulfillment centers, and Michael particularly who refuses to go 239 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 2: to the wall, would go online and get his team, etc. 240 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 2: It's got to come from somewhere. Big factory does that well. 241 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 2: Three point five million square meters of space this year 242 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 2: is expected to be added to supply two and a 243 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 2: half million next year. That's huge. So all of a sudden, 244 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 2: industrial properties on the nurse slightly just kind of remarkable 245 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 2: stuff going on in the corporate world, particularly the James 246 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 2: Hardy stuff and the Star stuff. But we're not really 247 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 2: taking much notice of this. 248 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 1: If you had to nominate one of those stories, because 249 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 1: assuming that under the rules, you weren't allowed to do 250 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: an omnibus story. If you had to nominate just one, 251 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: would you say, James Hardy. 252 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 2: Well, my question to you is, if you had to 253 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 2: do one in your. 254 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 6: Story, which particular promise from the government would it would 255 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 6: be the two point three home battery program, would be 256 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 6: the one billion dollars in spending regional fund it. 257 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: Would be, It would be the entire circus of the 258 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: election campaign. 259 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 2: Mine is the entire circus of corporate Australian. 260 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 3: Oh, okay, choose your favorite circus. There is no there's 261 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 3: not much splitting these two. It's very very close decision, 262 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 3: but there is a decision. So just on James Hardy, 263 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 3: and I'm going to go back a little bit because 264 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 3: corporate history here and asbestos and how they agreed to 265 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 3: handle some of those things. They've had some really questionable 266 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 3: behavior in the past, right, and so for them to 267 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 3: execute this particular transaction in this way I think is remarkable. 268 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 2: It is I'm like this because I'm going to win, 269 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 2: but I just think we'd better be careful because James Hardy, 270 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 2: it had the asbestos issue and people will not be happy, 271 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 2: but it had a redress screen redress scheme and has 272 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 2: done the right thing. I mean, you are the worse 273 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 2: people who will argue against that. But for ten, fifteen, 274 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 2: twenty years, I can't even remember how long ago they 275 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 2: have done the right thing. So like I think we 276 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: James Hardy is sort of synonymous with asbestos in Australia. 277 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 2: It's a real problem for them. But I actually do 278 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 2: think they have done the right thing. 279 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 3: And eventually they got eventually. 280 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't a willing kind of no, they've got 281 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: during that process. 282 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 3: Just in terms of where they are now and on 283 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 3: this transaction, I think there's so much odd about it, 284 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 3: like that the shareholders get to know, so why wouldn't 285 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 3: they be cross? So I think that that actually is 286 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 3: the most remarkable story of the week. 287 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 2: Oh there you go. 288 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: Oh. I thought it was one of those ones where 289 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: you start with Sean saying, yeah, this was good, but 290 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,479 Speaker 1: the election campaign is certainly most remarkable. 291 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 4: Oh it's too n ill. This is not looking good 292 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 4: for Squirrel. 293 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 2: It's slide. 294 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: Okay, I can still get home, Squirrel, I can still 295 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: come back. We will take a very quick break and 296 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: then after the break our mystery category Adam, and we've 297 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: got a good one and I think you in particular, God, 298 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 1: I'm nervous now are going to You're going to make 299 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: me do something. 300 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 2: I love it. 301 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: We'll be back in a moment, Sean. We are now 302 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: looking for our mystery category. We are and look in 303 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: choosing our mystery category. 304 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 4: This week. 305 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: We go back to your criteria, Adam, and one of 306 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: your criteria is subjective bias, the stories that you feel 307 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: passionately about. And there were two stories this week that 308 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: we feel just slide naturally into a category of worthy stories. 309 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: But nobody except for Adam Lange really cares. 310 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 2: I love it now. To be honest, Michael, often there's 311 00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 2: a few stories that fit into the category. 312 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 4: Very good point. 313 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 2: We're just saying, too naturally fitted into it this week. 314 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 4: But it's it's would I like to go first on sure, Adam, the. 315 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 5: Story kind of matters, it's worthy, but most of us 316 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 5: don't give it. It was It was the one about 317 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 5: Commonwealth being in Westpac talking about dropping the sixteen digits 318 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 5: on credit cards. 319 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 2: And debit cards. Of course, Adam, it matters to Adam 320 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 2: basically master cards arguing you're going to reduce fraud and scamming, 321 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 2: et cetera. If you have fewer credit card details on 322 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 2: your credit card. Now, I thought this is the no 323 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 2: brain and we're discussed it with Michael and he goes, oh, 324 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 2: I know, I like taking my credit card and put 325 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 2: the numbers in, And why is it a CVC and 326 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 2: a CCV, Like. 327 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 4: What's it changes? 328 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 2: Doesn't it? 329 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 7: Yeah? 330 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, but I know that's what I mean. 331 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 2: Like it. 332 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: It's some people are referred to it as a CVV, 333 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: So say CCV or CVC. 334 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 3: What do they all stand? 335 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 2: Like I said, I call it the number on the 336 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 2: back of the car. 337 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, secret code, Yeah, the three secret digits. 338 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 2: Anyway, we've got to stop thinking about white laders here. 339 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 4: You watched the finale, didn't last night? Okay?
