Investors have faced wave after wave of uncertainty – from fluctuating interest rates, persistent inflation and more recently, volatility driven by U.S. President Trump, Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin.

While we can’t control these events, we can control where we invest.

That’s why we’ve launched a national campaign, developed with creative agency Mahlab, to spread awareness of the benefits of astutely managed private credit. Continue…

Most of the time, prices for a security or a commodity trade in fairly narrow bands. Sure, prices trend because information isn’t distributed universally, and it takes time and confirmation for people to buy in or sell out, but on a daily (or even weekly) basis, price ranges and volumes are generally pretty narrow. 

A few times every decade, however, you will experience or witness some truly epic moves over very short periods of time. When you see these, it may be helpful to be positioned with cash and access to research. I am not sure if the latest ‘epic’ move turns out to be one of those opportunities, but I do believe it is worthy of further attention. And like I said, they only happen a few times in a decade.

In today’s volatile and uncertain market environment, many investors are looking beyond the traditional 60/40 portfolio of equities and fixed income to generate reliable returns.

There is growing interest in alternative investment strategies that can offer consistent income, lower volatility, and diversification from traditional asset classes.

That’s why we are delighted to introduce Digital Asset Funds Management (DAFM) as Montgomery Investment Management’s fifth investment partner – and the Digital Income Class, which we believe offers a compelling addition to, and a valuable diversifier within, an investor’s portfolio. Continue…

Since the advent of the car, railroads or electricity, few technologies have captured investor imagination quite like generative artificial intelligence (GenAI).  

The debut of AI tools like ChatGPT has attracted billions in research and development (R&D) and related construction investment at the same time that share market investors have poured trillions into AI-related stocks, inflating valuations to levels that some suggest should make even the dot-com era blush.   Continue…

In an interview earlier this month, Michael Howell of CrossBorder Capital  delivered his analysis of the global liquidity environment and its implications for financial markets. His message to investors was clear: liquidity, not interest rates or economic cycles, remains the true driver of asset performance – and right now, the liquidity tide is rising. But as always, tides reverse. Continue…

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?

Temple & Webster’s (ASX:TPW) financial year 2025 (FY25) results underline a business scaling rapidly in two markets still in the early innings of digital disruption. Revenue rose 21 per cent to $601 million, capped by a 28 per cent June surge that has flowed into FY26, where year-to-date (YTD) sales (1 July–11 August) are also up 28 per cent.

With market share at just 2.7 per cent in the $19 billion Australian furniture and homewares market – and online penetration a modest 20 per cent versus 35 per cent in the U.S. and 29 per cent in the UK – the runway is long. The $18 billion home improvement segment is even more fragmented, with only 5-10 per cent of sales online and no dominant digital-first player. Here, Temple & Webster grew revenue 43 per cent to $42 million in FY25, with management convinced this category can eventually deliver higher margins than furniture. Continue…

This morning i joined Juliette Saly on Ausbiz to discuss how investors should focus on central bank actions rather than rhetoric – given liquidity continues to be a key driver behind today’s market momentum. Over the past year, global liquidity has surged by around US$10 trillion, helping to fuel the dramatic rise in equities, defence stocks, and artificial intelligence (AI). Continue…

Last night I joined Phil Clark on ABC Nightlife to explore Kenneth Rogoff’s warnings on the looming U.S. debt pile and the end of the “free money” era, and why investors should stay cautious. With debt levels near WWII highs, foreign buyers showing less appetite for U.S. bonds, and Trump’s tax cuts paired with massive borrowing, the risks of a crisis are mounting. Continue…
