    ABC NEWCASTLE MORNINGS – FEBRUARY 2024

    Roger Montgomery
    March 5, 2025

    I joined Paul Turton on ABC Newcastle radio to discuss the recently announced tariffs and their impact on global markets. The market reacted swiftly, with both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq declining as investors weighed the potential consequences. Many economists believe these tariffs could have negative long-term effects, despite being designed to encourage onshore manufacturing, particularly in the technology sector. However, such policies also carry risks, including escalating trade wars between countries and disruptions to imports and exports, which could have broader economic implications. continue…

    February 26, 2025

    Last week, I joined Jess McGuire on ABC Statewide Drive to discuss the current reporting season.

Dividend per share results are also exceeding forecasts at a two-to-one rate, driving company outlook upgrades. Listed companies are gaining market share, with strong performers like the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (ASX:CBA), JB Hi-Fi (ASX:JBH), and REA Group (ASX:REA) standing out. continue…

    Roger Montgomery
    February 21, 2025

    This week, I joined David Taylor on ABC PM to discuss the Reserve Bank of Australia’s latest rate cut and why bank customers should take action. Many of us are effectively lending money to banks for free, and inertia prevents us from seeking better returns. With no guarantee of further cuts, now is the time to shop around and make our cash work harder. continue…

    ABC Newcastle Mornings – February 2024

    Roger Montgomery
    February 19, 2025

    I joined Paul Turton on ABC Newcastle radio yesterday to discuss the potential impact of rate cuts, the key drivers of the U.S. market’s strong performance, and what investors should focus on moving forward. We also touched on how markets are reacting to the deferral of tariffs, adding uncertainty to the outlook. Given these factors, I emphasised the importance of focusing on businesses with steady earnings growth rather than trying to predict macroeconomic trends, as long-term returns will ultimately reflect the strength of the underlying companies. continue…

    How DeepSeek has exposed the short lifespan of monopolies

    Roger Montgomery
    February 12, 2025

    What are the best businesses?

    Ausbiz – 2025 wildcards beyond the White House

    Roger Montgomery
    February 7, 2025

    Yesterday, I joined Ausbiz to discuss market trends, noting that while disinflation and economic growth provide support, tightening liquidity could impact small caps this year. I highlighted real estate as an opportunity, where temporary setbacks, like the REA Group (ASX:REA) CEO’s resignation, may offer buying chances. Looking ahead, U.S. and China tensions and debt refinancing remain key risks, with history suggesting a potential market decline despite the bullish backdrop. You can watch my full interview here: Ausbiz – 2025 wildcards beyond the White House continue…
