Could deflation be the next surprise?
Roger Montgomery
December 7, 2023
After the well-documented U.S. money printing spree of 2020-21, something interesting happened in the U.S.: Inflation started picking up in 2021-2022. Just as it takes time for water to fill a bucket, it took time for inflation to emerge, but when it did, annualised inflation averaged 7.7 per cent for 18 months from January 2021 to July 2022 (Figure 1). continue…

In this video insight, David Buckland and Gary Rollo discuss the underperformance of small-cap stocks compared to large-cap stocks since the beginning of 2022. Gary explains that economic uncertainty has contributed to the recent underperformance, as investors tend to shift from small, less liquid investments to larger ones during such periods. However, he views this as a temporary condition, anticipating that once economic uncertainty diminishes, the longer-term performance characteristics of small caps may come into play. continue…

Notably, over the weekend, Kerry Stokes’ Seven West Media strategically acquired a 20 per cent stake in ARN Media, raising questions about his broader interests across Australia. The developments add layers of intrigue to the future of Australia’s commercial radio sector, making it a captivating subject to observe. continue…

Ausbiz – The market’s ‘weighty’ overreaction…
Roger Montgomery
November 13, 2023
In last week’s Ausbiz interview, I explored investor sentiment surrounding the latest GLP-1 medications, specifically on Ozempic and its implications for companies like CSL (ASX: CSL) and ResMed (ASX: RMD). While the drop in CSL’s share value suggests market concerns about competing Ozempic-style drugs, I argue that these anxieties may be unfounded. My perspective rests on the belief that such medications might not be as transformative in addressing the weight of the U.S. population as investors might anticipate and the affordability surrounding it. Watch the full interview here. Ausbiz – The market’s ‘weighty’ overreaction… continue…
