How's our economy looking? Mark Bouris & Stephen Koukoulas - Clip from Property Insights 

Thanks Mate, the sad truth is that no one has a clue, we all react to what happens as it happens and try to analyse it but can’t predict an iota of what is going to unfold in the markets… content creators are like amplifiers, when times are good they affirm it and try to tell you why it’s good and that it’s looking bullish but then all of a sudden the market turns bearish and everyone affirms it again and try to analyse why… it’s so sad that many are so powerless and it's not about guessing the market's next move; it's about playing it smart and steady during trading...managed to grow a nest egg of around 2.3Bitcoin to a decent 19Bitcoin in the space of a few months... I'm especially grateful to Linda Wilburn, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.

I hope they raise rates People need to watch there money the poorer people don't watch there money play pokies travel 5 star hotels watch pay movies on foxtel. The tough and hard wogs with all the money went without and lived off nothing. The business people who came here after the 50s all have tens of millions of dollars in assets. The kids benefit the most there living on the water in the eastern suburbs. Try to get established now on minimum wage you will be lucky to get by. Rent is to dear.

How many more times these guys going to say REDUCE interest rates and have been wildly wrong. No vested interest here right :) These guys would be happy with 10% inflation rate it seems. Lucky these guys aren't driving the reserve bank bus.

Lowering rates will blow the lid off house prices. Property prices have risen with high rates. Imagine what will happen with massive immigration numbers and lower rates with low housing stock. Property prices are destroying our economy. I know you said it increases spending but also not. A rate ease will do even more damage. We are economically stuck in a bad situation.

This is very biased towards someone who is running a home lending business. Services or internal inflation is our biggest issue.

I’ve heard of layoffs for the first time this week, and some of the folks were at the company over 10 years

Don’t recycle old podcasts, some new/updated conversations please

I don't see business doing well out there? I see retail restaurants struggling

Great stuff Mark, heard you speak last Friday in Brisbane… loved it, very insightful…. 😊😊😊😊

What about gov spending? If they don’t stop everything else is irrelevant

Thanks for you valuable thoughts and information.

Inflation has just gone up, unemployment dropped, now what's gonna happen next?

full emplyement is regarding participation rate

THe problem is that with inflation not being brought under control rapidly (due to RBA sitting on their hands for 9 months back in 2022), is that now the flow on effects are driving up inflation. Unions are now getting 7% annualised increases to wages to compensate for the effects of inflation, which of course, drives inflation up further. This is not knocking the unions - we have all seen a 20% drop in wages due to inflation over the last 4 years, so it has to be counterbalanced. My point i that because the RBA sat on their hands for such a long time - probably because it would have hurt their egos to admit they were wrong - it's not only resulted in interest rates needing to be jacked up higher for longer, but also is now being countered by the necesary wage growth (which still isn't enough as we see a rise in working poor living in cars and tents across the country).

Most media outlets and talking heads like our friends here can't wait for the RBA to cuts rates.. I wonder why that might be?

First time here, good video is the rest behind a paywall? The chart worked great

Rates need to go up.

Immigration numbers in 3 sectors - No allowance. Tariffs removal increasing product prices both locally and export revenue distortion

This was on last week

This didn’t age well. Rate cut…

Thanks for the chat and insights. I am seeing wage increases in the corporate world slow down, however people on awards will get an increase of 3.75% from 1/7/2024. People say that the tax cuts are not inflationary, I am not an expert, but I believe they will fuel the inflation fire. Lets see how the numbers look around September 2024.

Chapters boys!!

Wrong again lads....... Inflation numbers Hmmmm. These two would had interest rates back 2.00% across the last few months if they were in control.

How can Koukoulas say inflation is falling when rents and house prices are marching upwards? The economy is overheated, fuel prices are high and prices are stratospheric.

How long is a string 🤔👍😉😁😳👀

What? Cutoff midway convo?

Nothing more annoying then someone responding with "correct"

This guy has no idea

Economy????That went down the drain years ago. when unscrupulous investors and employer groups recognised that others on our doorstep had workers who either worked or starved. It was a no win situation for Australian workers who were subjected to all of societies ills.....mainly gambling on ever street corner!

mate a clip is 2 minutes or something not half the poadcast lol

Hahahahaha a lot of ifs!!!!!! No rate cuts guys, poor financial decision should not be covered anymore. Rate rates and let's stop beating around the bush

Koukoulas should be RBA Governor

Tell the truth 😅 this country has become for the rich . Tell the truth lots of business big and small have made huge profits from scub labour buy dodgy causl contracts I trained at a Woolloomooloo community center they on individual contracts not under Sydney city council 😮but buy private company no sick pay no holiday pay . Thats problem you guys love low interest rates but not higher pay for workers 😢lower interest rates just lazy house prices well even go higher and rents .mark laughs he makes more money 😂😂
