Statewide Drive – Stagflation and rising debt
Roger Montgomery
September 5, 2025
This week on ABC Statewide Drive with Jess Maguire, I explored the risks of stagflation and rising debt. While markets may look strong on the surface, the reality is more complex. Stagflation – when economic growth slows or stalls while prices continue to rise – creates a challenging environment for investors. We’re beginning to see signs of a slowing economy alongside persistent inflation, and that combination is far from ideal. So, what does this mean for share prices, and how should investors think about adapting their portfolios?

I joined Juliette Saly from Ausbiz to discuss America’s growing debt crisis and the looming risk of stagflation – the mix of slowing growth and stubborn inflation. We explored why rising borrowing costs, political pressure on the Federal Reserve, and stretched equity valuations are fuelling concerns, and what this means for investors navigating fragile markets. We also looked at the drivers behind the recent gold price surge.

Firstlinks – Should Australia follow Trump’s new brand of capitalism?
Roger Montgomery
September 4, 2025
In my article for Firstlinks, I explore whether a new brand of capitalism is emerging – one where governments take equity stakes in key industries to fund public services. Drawing on recent moves by the U.S. under Trump, I ask if Australia should consider a similar model to turn our resource wealth into broader social good, rather than relying solely on higher taxes or immigration.

Roger Montgomery

When it comes to investing, I’ve always believed the most important thing is managing risk. Over the years I’ve learnt a lot about how to build wealth steadily, and those lessons are just as relevant for people in their 30s as they are for those approaching retirement. In this bonus episode of The Money Puzzle, I sit down with The Australian’s Wealth Editor, Julie-anne Sprague, to share how I developed my approach to investing and what it can mean for your financial journey.

ABC Newcastle Mornings – Is cryptocurrency becoming more mainstream?
Roger Montgomery
September 2, 2025
I joined Paul Turton on ABC Newcastle Mornings to talk about digital asset funds – what they are, how investors can gain exposure to cryptocurrencies without directly buying or managing them, and whether the asset class is becoming more mainstream. We explored real-world cases that show why blockchain makes sense, as a digital version of cash that enables frictionless payments while bypassing banks to help preserve wealth. With regulation on the way, the space is becoming more comfortable for investors. Bitcoin isn’t going anywhere, but the real question is what’s driving its price higher. I also touched on funds that profit from bitcoin regardless of price direction by arbitraging futures contracts.

ABC The Business – Signs of a bubble emerging in the ASX
Roger Montgomery
August 26, 2025
I joined David Taylor on ABC The Business to discuss signs that the market might be entering bubble territory.
Sharemarkets continue to climb, driven by fear of missing out (FOMO), expectations of interest rate cuts, and easing global tensions. But these same forces are also evidence that this boom could be shifting into the early stages of a bubble. continue…

Statewide Drive – Bitcoin surge
Roger Montgomery
August 23, 2025
This week on ABC Statewide Drive with Jess Maguire, I explained why Bitcoin has surged to fresh record highs and whether it’s truly gone mainstream or just another bubble in the making. I broke down the origins of cryptocurrency, how blockchain removes costly intermediaries, and why central bank money printing and a weaker U.S. dollar are fuelling demand for Bitcoin as a hedge alongside gold. Importantly, continue…

Ausbiz – the Bitcoin bull case
Roger Montgomery
August 22, 2025
Today, I joined Juliette Saly on Ausbiz to discuss what’s powering Bitcoin’s bull case. I explained that Bitcoin is highly sensitive to global central bank liquidity which has been rising since late 2022. With over US$300 trillion in global debt that requires constant refinancing – central banks are forced to inject liquidity, effectively deflating the U.S. dollar. That’s why Bitcoin, like gold, is increasingly being seen as a natural hedge. continue…
