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…

Changing competitive dynamics in mortgage lending
Stuart Jackson
October 28, 2019
In my video blog last week, I discussed why the major banks had not passed on the recent RBA rate cuts in full. This is due to an increasing proportion of each bank’s funding base approaching zero or close to zero interest rates.
