Apple’s new pricing strategy
Daniel Wu
November 14, 2019
With the launch of the iPhone 11 hardware cycle, Apple has done something it has never done before – it lowered the starting price of the most popular iPhone model.

Banking on lower Growth
Stuart Jackson
November 12, 2019
As highlighted in the recent results announcements from Australia and New Zealand Banking Group (ASX:ANZ), Westpac (ASX:WBC) and National Australia Bank (ASX:NAB), the earnings and profits of our major banks are on the slide.

Lachlan Mackay
November 11, 2019

Is there more upside potential for Avita Medical?
Joseph Kim
November 1, 2019
Avita Medical (AVH:AU) is a regenerative medical device company that produces the RECELL device for the treatment of burns. It is a company I have written about previously and whilst being a recent addition to the Montgomery fund’s portfolios, it has been one of its better performers. Given the share price appreciation in a short period of time, it’s worth reviewing the company’s operating performance and potential for further upside. continue…
