Another pivot in the AI theme
Roger Montgomery
November 17, 2023
We have written previously that the boom in AI-theme-exposed stocks will have to be supported by monetisation in order to be sustained. There are plenty of consumer benefits from artificial intelligence (AI), and consumers will indeed be winners, but for companies to see a transformation in their revenues from AI, something more than just tacking AI-powered features onto their existing products will need to occur.

At a recent investment conference here in Sydney, former Federal Reserve Bank of New York president, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and now Bloomberg columnist William C.

Alliance Aviation Services – A beacon amidst small cap volatility
Gary Rollo
November 15, 2023
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…

Rationalisation of the Australian commercial radio industry
David Buckland
November 14, 2023
In this week’s video insight, I delve into the events of mid-October, specifically focusing on the collaborative proposal by ARN Media and Anchorage Capital Partners for a non-binding, indicative acquisition of Southern Cross Media. The merger sparked concerns about market dominance, particularly in the commercial radio sector in metropolitan Australia, leading to scrutiny from the ACCC. 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.
