Show Notes

The latest edition of our finance and property news digest with a distinctively Australian flavour.

In today’s show we look across the global markets, and read the runes of what’s going on. Despite the rising Delta case load, markets are looking through this potential risk, reacting tor recent company results, and jobs growth which occurred pre-Delta. The glass is, as they say half-full!
