Hi TTP, what are your thoughts on the Tigs chasing Butters? Given we won't likely be in a premiership window for another 2-3yrs at least is this a wise choice? You never see Geel, Haw or Col pay huge money like this and they are always competitive. #talkingtigers
With the likely retirements of Broad, Prestia and Lynch at end of yr, that's a lot of games walking out the door at a time when our youngsters still need some guidance. Who should we be looking at to add some experience like Nth did with Parker and Darling #talkingtigers
Hi @AntonyGreenElec, if as the polls suggest, labor win the NSW elec, labor will be in power federally and every mainland state and territory. Has this ever happened before? On either side?
Vic Labor to be returned with a reduced majority. Maybe 50 seats. JP to take over Libs leadership and lead them to a landslide in 2026 after the state has finally had enough of DA's autocratic leadership and the state's level of debt becomes a huge burden #VicVotes2022
Great to see the NSW Premier and the PM working together in their time of need. If only the career politician the Vic Premier did the same during the pandemic instead trying to score political points against Canberra at every opportunity, this state might not be as screwed now
Have to assume the voters in seats like Kooyong and Goldstein citing integrity as the main reason for their vote will apply the same standards towards to the premier at the state election later this year..
Labor seems to be implying that the RBA increasing the cash rate is something of an economic failure. Did they expect rates to stay at emergency levels for ever? The fact that economic growth and unemployment are ahead of forecast should be applauded and the rate rise welcomed
In a world where we are quick to point out the shortcomings of our elected governments and less so their achievements, it would be great to see both sides of political divide acknowledge the importance of the interim FTA with India. Perhaps even the Vic premier?
A wholly unscientific straw poll with the distortion the method of voting creates as the main issue, but letโs see what the results reveal: RETWEET if you think Anthony Albanese and Labor wins the election. LIKE if you think Scott Morrison and the Coalition wins. #auspol
Credit to Japan for pulling off an enjoyable Games. Didn't think it was possible a few months back but been a good distraction from everything else going on.
The RBA lights a fire under house prices by lowering the cash rate and through TFF. APRA sidesteps and says not our problem. Both ALP and Libs wedded to higher prices through their vested interests. Its hard to see what's ever going to stop this runaway train..
Hard to see the logic behind the Palaszczuk gov decision to keep the QLD borders closed. So many Vic tourists wanting to escape winter and provide much needed boost to local tourism sector. Appears no more than stubbornness now
Hi @TheMotleyFoolAu Question for the podcast. Net migration is expected to fall by 85% in 2020-21. Migration has underpinned much of our GDP growth in recent years I'm interested in your thoughts on how this may impact aussie shares. Any stocks that may fare worse than others?
Hi @TMFScottP Question for the great podcast about investing in a NASDAQ ETF. I feel the growth this decade will come from outside the top 10 companies. Any suggestions to gain exposure to the NASDAQ without being weighed down by the big guys? Any ETFs like Betashares Aust ex20?
#thepartyroom why have we seen such large swings against sitting nats towards independents and minor parties in rural and regional seats such as recent vic and nsw state elections?
