1 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: Welcome to Fear and Greed business news you can use today. 2 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,399 Speaker 1: A drop in inflation opens the way for interest rate cuts, 3 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,440 Speaker 1: Australia edges closer to calling for a separate state of Palestine, 4 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: and the federal government adds YouTube to the list of 5 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:23,080 Speaker 1: social media sites banned for young teenagers. Plus, an Australian 6 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 1: EU free trade deal looks to be faltering, and the 7 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: share price of weight Loss drug group Novo Nordisk tumbles 8 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,160 Speaker 1: thirty percent on disappointing sales of ozempic and we Govi. 9 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: It is Thursday, the thirty first of July twenty twenty five. 10 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: I'm Michael Thompson and good morning, Sean Aylmer. You are 11 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 1: breathless something for everyone this morning. There is so much 12 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 1: in that I'm out of breath after just the intro. 13 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: You can imagine How'm going to be in fifteen minutes time. 14 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: The main story this morning, Sean, Inflation has fallen to 15 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: its lowest level since early twenty twenty one, heaping pressure 16 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: on the Reserve Bank to cut interest rates in two 17 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: weeks time now. The long awaited figures were broadly in 18 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: line with the Central Bank's forecast. 19 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 2: Headline inflation came in at zero point seven percent for 20 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 2: the quarter, which translated to two point one percent for 21 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 2: the year. That's the lowest in more than four years. 22 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 2: The all important underlying or trim demean rate takes out 23 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,040 Speaker 2: the temporary, the volatile items, that sort of thing. It 24 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 2: measured zero point six percent for the quarter two point 25 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 2: six percent for the year. Now the Reserve Bank targets 26 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 2: two to three percent. Two point six percent to me, 27 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 2: seems very close to the midpoint. On both a three 28 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 2: and six month annualized basis. Trim demean inflation is at 29 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 2: two point four percent for three months two point six 30 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 2: percent for six months, very much around the midpoint of 31 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 2: the RBA ban. Services inflation continues to be more elevated 32 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,559 Speaker 2: than goods inflation. It was up three point three percent 33 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: over the year. However, the trend is your friend, Michael. 34 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 2: It is lower than last quarter. Last quarter's three point 35 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 2: seven percent. We're talking about services inflation here three point 36 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: three percent, and that's thanks to mild rents and insurance 37 00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 2: price growth. Goods inflation is very mild. It's actually one 38 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 2: point one percent. Infact, goods inflation is almost too low 39 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 2: in terms of categories. Biggest rises concentrated in food specifically. 40 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 2: I know you know the answer to this, but tell us, Michael, 41 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 2: what was the most costly item or increase. 42 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: Sean eggs, eggs, eggs whopping nineteen point one percent across 43 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: the year. That is, if you can. 44 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 2: Find them, If you could find them, that's right. Lamb 45 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 2: and goat came in next, then tobacco and coffee and tea. 46 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 2: You've done quite a few stories about them. Cocoa prices rising, fuel, electricity, 47 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 2: transport fares, and you weren't like this one books they 48 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 2: actually fell in price. 49 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: That's okay, more affordable, more accessible, Sean right. 50 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 2: Housing accounts for twenty percent of the inflation basket. It's 51 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 2: been one of the major drivers of prices in Australia 52 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 2: over the past few years. The good news is momentum 53 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 2: continues to be going the other way. Rents rows just 54 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 2: one percent over the quarter. 55 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 1: You mentioned one thing there, Sean about goods inflation being 56 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: very very mild, almost kind of too low at one 57 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: point one percent. I might get into that in a 58 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: little bit more detail in Ask Fear and Greed today 59 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: about what happens when inflation is too low? Excellent, but 60 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: we'll do that later. I hear that at midday. Probably 61 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: all this is good news, though, but I feel that 62 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: at some point before you've said that inflation data will 63 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: result in lower interest rates. I feel like I'm just 64 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: trying to read the room here and just the vibe 65 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: in the studio. Is I feel like you're going to 66 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: say this is enough for the RBA to lower rates, right, Yes, 67 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,839 Speaker 1: of course. But can I actually believe you because you've 68 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: said all of this before, Sean. 69 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 2: Yes, Michael, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, probably. 70 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: Oh Jesus, I knew that was coming and I still 71 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: fell for it. 72 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 2: If yesterday's report is he make or break flower interest rates, 73 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: then I think it's the make the Reserve Bank will move. 74 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: Everyone seems to think that. Financial markets think that. The 75 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 2: S and P ASX two one hundred jumped after the 76 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 2: news yesterday. It finished just shy of a record close, 77 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: finished up more than half a percent to eighty seven 78 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty six points. Interest rate sensitive stocks did best, 79 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 2: so I think banks, property companies, those sorts of things. 80 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 2: The result pushed, not the ASX result. The inflation result 81 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 2: pushed the Aussie dollar back under sixty five YUS sense. 82 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 2: In the short term, the Aussie tends to rise and 83 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: fall on the back of interest rate expectations. The three 84 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 2: year bond yield fell seven bases points, meaning investors think 85 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 2: the likelihood of a rate cut has risen. Treasure Jim 86 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 2: Chalmers said the data shows how well Australia's performing in 87 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 2: the fight against inflation. The Reserve Bank pretty much has 88 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 2: to cut raids. 89 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: But that's what everyone kind of thought last time it 90 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: was going to happen. So is that it'll be. 91 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 2: A very courageous reserve bank because it actually said just 92 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 2: looking for more data. Now this data, it's probably in 93 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 2: line with what the Reserve Bank thought. If anything, it's 94 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 2: a bit weaker than what the Reserve Bank thought. 95 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: Okay, So it would be an even bigger surprise that 96 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: even bigger than last time. 97 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 2: Not just shocked, would be very shocked. 98 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: You'd be on the floor, that's right, Okay. Moving on, 99 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: Australia has called on countries to quote express willingness to 100 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: recognize the state of Palestine as an essential step towards 101 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: the two state solution, after the UK government said it 102 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: would recognize Palestinian statehood in September unless Israel meets key conditions. 103 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: Yes so. 104 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: In a joint statement from fifteen countries released yesterday morning. 105 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 2: Foreign Minister Pennywong and her counterparts said they gets very wordy. 106 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 2: It's diplomacy at its most confusing. It says they'd already recognized, 107 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 2: have expressed or express the willingness or the positive consideration 108 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: of our countries to recognize the state of Palestine as 109 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 2: an essential step towards the two state solution. He went 110 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 2: on to invite other countries to join the core. I mean, 111 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 2: basically Australia is saying and these countries saying it once 112 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: is just stopping short of saying there needs to be 113 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 2: an independent state of Palestine. But it's getting mighty mighty 114 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 2: close to that. The statement also demands an immediate seas 115 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 2: via the immediate and unconditional or release of all hostages 116 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 2: of m including the remains, as well as ensuring unhindered 117 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 2: humanitarian access. So where this is evolving two we already 118 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: have France calling for an independent state of Palestine. The 119 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 2: big issue for countries like the UK and Australia is 120 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 2: the role of mass because no one wants a mass 121 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 2: running Palestine, and that is why we're stopping short of it. 122 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 2: At the moment, it seems. 123 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: Okay, I mentioned before the development in the social media ban, 124 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 1: teenagers between the ages of thirteen and sixteen will be 125 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: banned from creating YouTube accounts in what is a pretty 126 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,239 Speaker 1: significant policy backflip by the Albanese government as a prepares 127 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: to implement a world first higher minimum age to access 128 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: these social media platforms. 129 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 2: There was Avers who came after advice from e Safety 130 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 2: Commissioner Julie Inman Grant, who found YouTube was the most 131 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 2: widely used platform for young teens and the most likely 132 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: likely place for them to encounter harm material, according to 133 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 2: report in the finn Review. The law, which is being 134 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 2: watched closely by other countries, comes into effect on December 135 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 2: tenth and increases the minimum age to use platforms including TikTok, 136 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 2: Instagram and Facebook, Snapchat and X to sixteen. You've got 137 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 2: to be sixteen to use that. I impose penalties of 138 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: up to fifty million dollars on platforms if they don't 139 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 2: enforce the new limit. Now enforcing it will be very difficult. 140 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: What YouTube owner Alphabet has done in the US the 141 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,239 Speaker 2: beginning to use artificial intelligence to determine where the viewers 142 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 2: in that country are under the age of eighteen. This 143 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 2: is according to report on Bloomberg. So Alphabet slash YouTube 144 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 2: knows it needs to take action on that and it 145 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 2: is trying to use AI to do So. 146 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: Okay, we're going to take a quick break. Before we do, 147 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: I just want to mention today's interview that we have 148 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: coming up after the show. And normally I wouldn't mention 149 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: this to the end of the show, but this is 150 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: a bit different today, something a little bit a little 151 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: bit different because you are speaking today with Scott Farqua, 152 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: who is the co founder of it Lassian. He's also 153 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: the chair of the Tech Council of Australia. And it's 154 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: a slightly longer conversation but it is worth every second. 155 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 2: You've forgot to mention the fourth or. 156 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: Fifth riches Australian. Yes, that's true. It would be by 157 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: far the wealthiest person to have appeared on Fearing Not flashy, No, 158 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: not flashy and just so down to earth. Yeah. 159 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: Look, he was at the National Press Club in Camber yesterday. 160 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 2: In terms of the Tech Council, he was kind of 161 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 2: talking about things like using AI for housing, like how 162 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 2: to improve improve the housing issue in Australia. AI can 163 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 2: help what the opportunity is for Australia as the AI 164 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 2: revolution comes, and it's not just artificial intelligence. It's about 165 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 2: data centers, it's about setting ourselves up to be at 166 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 2: the forefront in this region of the world. Of that, 167 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 2: it's almost the technological infrastructure as much as it is 168 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 2: the technology and what the guver needs to do and 169 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 2: as a result, what the gunment needs to do to 170 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 2: make that happen. 171 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: There's a great interview with a big thinker in this space, 172 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 1: and someone of whom clearly knows what needs to happen, 173 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: because he's done all of this before in his own 174 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 1: business and has made a fortune out of it, so 175 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: it's worth listening to him. It's coming up after the show. 176 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: We'll take a quick break back in a moment with 177 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: the rest of the day's business news. Shawn. The deadline 178 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: for the setting of US tariff's fast approaching. In fact, 179 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: it's tomorrow, the first of August, and Australia isn't close 180 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: to her, isn't close to it. 181 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,439 Speaker 2: And here's something's going on that none of us know about. 182 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: It's possible to say it's unlikely. Talks though on a 183 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: trade deal with the EU, also look to be faltering. 184 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: At the same time. 185 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 2: Yes, so, US President Donald Trump in recent days has 186 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,839 Speaker 2: said anyone without a deal by August one will get 187 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 2: captured by a broad fifteen to twenty percent tariff. And 188 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: originally we were slated for ten percent tariff. He said 189 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 2: this about a week ago, he said it again a 190 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 2: couple of days ago. Looks like that's where we're heading. Clearly, 191 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 2: we haven't had significant negotiations with the US. The opposition 192 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 2: has claimed anything. Albernizi has run up the white flag 193 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 2: on tariffs. We sell about twenty four billion dollars of 194 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 2: goods to Australia. No on that EU European Union trade 195 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 2: dealer you mentioned, media is reporting that we've been pushed 196 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,199 Speaker 2: down the rankings of importance. So this week the EU 197 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 2: announced a fifteen percent tariff deal with the US. It's 198 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 2: attempting to finalize a deal with a block of South 199 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 2: American nations like Argentina and Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay. They are 200 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 2: coming in in front of US now, given there are 201 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 2: a lot more people and probably a lot more value 202 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 2: to the EU than we are, it's not really surprising. 203 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: Still offensive, and while we're talking the US, though, Sean 204 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 1: the Orcus review will be finalized in the second half 205 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: of this year and will involve consultation with Australia and 206 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: the UK. 207 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 2: A statement the Pentagon said the review's purpose is to 208 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 2: revivee the President and he's senior leadership team with a 209 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: fact based, rigorous assessment of the initiative. The review would 210 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 2: be a department wide process and an empirical clear right 211 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 2: assessment of the initiatives, alignment with President Trump's America First approach. 212 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: With the government's economic reform round Table fast approaching, major 213 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: employers are providing submissions, with Westpac focusing on building more 214 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: homes and accelerating Australia's energy transition, while SGH boss Ryan 215 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 1: Stokes says labor productivity is being exacerbated by the government's 216 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: restrictions on contractors and worker abuse of compensation claims for 217 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: mental health.

The goals to make the economy more productive, 221 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 2: build resilient strength of the budget. Westpac submission heavy on 222 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 2: harnessing AI to streamline and speed up the building of 223 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 2: new homes, also calls for state governments to get autonomy 224 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 2: over approvals and calls for the nomination of ten cities 225 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 2: in Region Australia to drive investment and growth. Stakes, says 226 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 2: Ryan Stokes's submission, more controversial. SGH used to be seven 227 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 2: group holdings in seven group holding Exactually I think it's 228 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 2: got about five or six assets in its seven group 229 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 2: is now the smallest of them, things like West Track, 230 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 2: Borrel Coats, They're all much bigger plus seventeen thousand people. 231 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 2: Speaking of the thin review Stakes raised concerns about the 232 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 2: sharp rise in mental health claims by private and public 233 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 2: sector workers for alleged workplace psychological injuries. He wants national 234 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 2: legislation stand and get no compensation, be payable to work 235 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:25,119 Speaker 2: if a significant cause of the psychological injury is reasonable 236 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 2: management action okay. 237 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: Now, strict new gambling rules and fewer tourists at Star 238 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: Entertainments facility in Sydney have sent the gaming group's revenues 239 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: falling by almost a third in just three months. That's 240 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: more bad news for the group. 241 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 2: Yeap. Once again it seems to be pushing an uphill. 242 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,839 Speaker 2: The company is also unlikely to am I allowed to 243 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 2: say pushing it up hill. 244 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 1: As long as you say, pushing it uphill and leave 245 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: a very clear. 246 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 2: Distinct Apologies to anyone listening that was offended. Basically, the 247 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 2: Stars also unlikely to reach a final deal with its 248 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 2: Hong Kong based business partners for the sale of its 249 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 2: Queen's Wharf state for the deadline at the end of 250 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 2: this week. That could potentially cost the group world ten 251 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 2: million upfront, and then there's another twenty six point five 252 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 2: million that it may have to pay. All sorts of 253 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 2: problems for Star Still. 254 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: Sean, I know what everyone's actually hanging out for. An 255 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 1: update on the Australian made rocket, the Gilmore Space Technology rocket. 256 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: It was supposed to take off yesterday that the previous 257 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: day had been delayed by those high winds up really high. 258 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: It did take off yesterday briefly, and then it crashed 259 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: and exploded. It was not up for very long. It 260 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: had twenty three seconds of engine burn time. It had 261 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: fourteen seconds of flight. But still Gilmore Space Technology said 262 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: that they were pretty happy with that because at least 263 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,439 Speaker 1: it got off the launch pad. It had been sitting 264 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: on the launch pad for eighteen months, right waiting, I 265 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: don't want to be cynic, right, Okay, you're going to 266 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: say that this is not a success. 267 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, I get that. You know ASEX 268 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 2: always talks about this. It's a success if they're happy 269 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 2: with fourteen seconds off the launch pad. 270 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:04,959 Speaker 1: It's that what you said. 271 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Would that have actually pushed it to the 272 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 2: four to five kilometers high where the winds were stopping 273 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 2: it from the previous. 274 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: Day, Probably not. No, it didn't look like it got 275 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 1: much above the launch pad itself. Yeah, so yes, yeah, 276 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: but it's nice that they were thinking big. They were 277 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: aiming high for that four to five Okay, look, you 278 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: are a cynic and we are going to move on Passley. Sorry, 279 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: very very quickly. But it's just nice to update. It 280 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: turn into international news now and President Donald Trump said 281 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: he fell out with Jeffrey Epstein because the convicted sex 282 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: offender had poached staff from his club's spa, including Virginia Jiuffrey, 283 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: who was the woman at the center of an underage 284 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: sex scandal involving Prince Andrew. 285 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 2: The White House has said previously that Trump threw Epstcene 286 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 2: out of Marilago Club two decades ago for quota being 287 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 2: a creep. US media has reported that they became estranged 288 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 2: over a Florida real estate deal. Now, speaking to reporters 289 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 2: on Air Force One while flying home from scott Land, 290 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 2: Trump was more expansive, saying, I quote, people were taken 291 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 2: out of the spa. He's talking about mary Lago Spa, 292 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 2: hired by him. In other words, gone. When I heard 293 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 2: about it, I told him, I said, listen, we don't 294 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 2: want you taking our people. And then not too long 295 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 2: after that, he did it again and I said, out 296 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 2: of here. 297 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: That's all. 298 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 2: According to AFP, Trump also confirmed that one of the 299 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 2: mary Lago SPA attendants taken by Epstein was Giuffrey, who 300 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 2: brought a civil case against Epstein's friend Prince Andrew, accusing 301 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 2: him of sexually assaulting her when she was seventeen. 302 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: Now, finally I mentioned this one at the top of 303 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: the show. The share price of Novo Nordisk, the company 304 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: behind revolutionary diabetes and weight loss drugs WHAT, crashed thirty 305 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: percent yesterday after announcing weaker than expected sales and profits 306 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: for the June half and a relatively poor outlook. God 307 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: investors did not want to hear that. 308 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: No, I mean, I reckon This company is one of 309 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 2: the probably the hottest stock in the world over the 310 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 2: last couple of years major stock, and what it was 311 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: anyway was yeah, yeah. Investors basically poured into it on 312 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 2: the belief that has Enpick and we Go, the would 313 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 2: spark a health revolusion, but future sales won't be what 314 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 2: Nova had hoped for. Quickly lost about one hundred and 315 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 2: forty three billion dollars of its market value before settling 316 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 2: twenty three percent lower. That's a lot of money. The 317 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 2: challenge for Nava Law is a disc a lot more 318 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 2: competition from Eli Lelly, which also has weight loss drugs. 319 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 2: There's also a bunch of smaller companies bio texts basically 320 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 2: delivering copycat drugs. Narva's finding it really hard to stop. 321 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 2: So the idea that it's got this monopoly or duopoly 322 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 2: once Eli Lelly gets in seems to be frittering away. 323 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: Ye.
