In this episode of the Fear and Greed Podcast, Sean Aylmer and I discuss the evolving landscape of private credit and its emergence as a viable investment class. I explain how private credit operates outside the traditional banking system and has gained traction due to changes in banking regulations post-GFC. The conversation focuses on debunking myths around private credit, particularly the misconception that high returns necessarily imply high risk. This deep dive into private credit reveals its potential as a key component in investment portfolios, poised to become a more prominent asset class.

The chorus of investors who believe the market is due for a correction is growing louder, and the list of reasons is growing longer.

I have some sympathy with the view the market could pull back. I believe there is an ever-present risk of such pullbacks, so if one should emerge, it would not be surprising. Additionally, I have no belief in anyone’s ability to forecast the precise timing of such a pullback consistently, so now could be as good a time as any. continue…

I joined Jas on the Spark your FIRE podcast to discuss the positive outlook for equities, especially innovative companies with strong growth potential.

In my recent article for Firstlinks, I revisited the stance I took nearly a year ago, advocating for investment in small caps – a position that seemed premature at the time. Subsequently, the investment landscape has evolved significantly, steering many investors, myself included, towards smaller companies both domestically and internationally. The current macroeconomic backdrop, characterised by disinflation and positive economic growth, seems particularly conducive to smaller companies with robust pricing power and innovation, traits that are essential for outperformance.

In this week’s episode of Ausbiz, I share insights into Tesla’s (NASDAQ;TSLA) current challenges, noting the significant gap between vehicle production and sales despite expectations from innovations in AI and battery storage. This discrepancy raises questions about Tesla’s valuation and its similarities to traditional car manufacturers. I also discuss Tesla’s strategy to enhance software revenue and self-driving capabilities, questioning their effectiveness against the backdrop of sales challenges and global hesitancy towards autonomous vehicles. I also delve into the recent surge in cocoa prices due to supply disruptions and high demand around Easter, suggesting an investment strategy that leverages the post-Easter discounted chocolate eggs for potential profit by transforming them into more marketable chocolate products.

I highlighted Macquarie Technology’s promising future in cloud computing and AI, predicting its share price could potentially rise.

In my recent interview with Ausbiz, I discussed the current state of the stock market and addressed the question of whether it is in a bubble. I noted that the typical euphoria seen in market bubbles is absent and highlighted that both the U.S. and Australian market gains, along with current initial public offering (IPO) trends, do not align with typical bubble indicators. continue…
