I don’t think it’s hyperbole the best investigative business journalist Australia has ever produced @NeilChenoweth is retiring today. His intelligence is only matched with his humility. I’ll never forget I got to work with the great man. We are all going to miss him terribly.

Extraordinary number of ships at #singapore. All bunched up here because of Red Sea disruption to shipping and shifts in way things are being shipped. Fascinating. This is where commerce and geo politics come face to face
