  • Peaks and troughs

    Aside from Alan, the show would benefit from more analysis and less waffle - it was 3:20 of the episode ‘Who will benefit from the budget’ before any mention of policy…

  • Terrific stuff

    Never written a review, never listened to a podcast, wary of all podcasts as they’re essentially advertising platforms with no end leading to dilution. This is far from the case - genuine experts with a genuine need for continuous communication and more value for taxpayers. Love it.

  • Completely mixed bag

    I subscribed to this for the deep dives by Alan Kohler but picked up the rest of this on the same feed.

    Alan is a master communicator which is rare for business presenters.

    Most are wooden, or try to insert too much information, or oversensationalise.

    The rest of the business and finance team at the ABC are well intended but barely listenable and would do well to study why Alan rates so well. It’s media school 101.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Will France lead the world into economic crisis?
Q: How concerned are you by the huge amount of money that's currently being thrown at artificial intelligence, and the circular funding that we're seeing between these companies involved in artificial intelligence with the chip companies, owning the companies who are buying the chips off them, and going in this massive circle?
Sheets says corporate demand to adopt AI is driving investment and is likely to continue, but the scale of spending creates higher stakes. Like the internet boom, the AI boom may include bubbles, mispricing and failures that pose financial stability risks.
Will France lead the world into economic crisis?
Q: When you're looking at the unrest in France and you're looking at what's happening in bond markets, what is front of mind for you? Is it the potential political response to the civil unrest, this anger within the community, or is it a potential sovereign debt crisis?
Sheets says all of these concerns matter: France's high debt, possible spillovers to other countries and European frustration over weak growth and innovation. He argues Europe needs deregulation, AI adoption and coordinated development of its defense sector to unlock growth.
Will the overseas oil shock influence interest rates?
Q: There are some oil producing nations not affected by the current shipping issues in the Middle East, including the United States, whose revenue must have taken off due to the increase in global oil prices. How do these revenues affect the global economy or their national economies?
Higher oil prices boost revenues, profits, investment and shareholder returns for producers and energy-exporting countries, including the United States, Russia and Australia. Consumers in those countries still pay more for fuel and other goods, while energy-importing nations are worse off; the gains are unevenly distributed.
Will investors buy into Anthropic’s AI vision?
Q: How do you see this playing out over the coming weeks? And potentially, as you did in your analysis, could this be a potential pivot point for global markets?
Verrender says a successful listing could help the AI investment boom recover, while a failed offering could intensify market declines. He also points to rising interest rates and sovereign debt risks as broader financial pressures.
Will investors buy into Anthropic’s AI vision?
Q: What did you take from this prospectus and the fact that they've decided to still go full steam ahead?
Ian Verrender says Anthropic needs capital for development and is turning to equity because it does not require interest payments or repayment like debt. A successful listing could also help the company fund itself independently of its customers.
