The latest edition of our finance and property news digest with a distinctively Australian flavour.
In today’s show we review the weeks action on the markets, as stock reach new highs in the light of dovish comments from several central banks, which took some of the tops off bonds, and cast inflation fears in a fresh light, despite the fact that the costs of many things are rising due to the supply chain issues.
The major US indices ended the week at record highs Friday as a better-than-expected monthly jobs report and positive Covid-19 treatment news triggered a sea of green across Wall Street.

“Global carbon dioxide emissions have bounced back after COVID-19 restrictions and are likely to reach close to pre-pandemic levels this year, our analysis released today has found.
The new numbers vividly illustrate the global challenge posed by decades of delayed climate policy and investment. To meet the 2050 goal of the Paris Agreement, which calls for limits to warming temperatures, nations would now have to cut emissions every year by an amount greater than the combined carbon output of Germany and Saudi Arabia.
The troubling finding comes as the COP26 climate talks continue in Glasgow in a last-ditch bid to keep dangerous global warming at bay. The analysis was undertaken by the Global Carbon Project, a consortium of scientists from around the world who produce, collect and analyse global greenhouse gas information.
The fast recovery in CO₂ emissions, following last year’s sharp drop, should come as no surprise. The world’s strong economic rebound has created a surge in demand for energy, and the global energy system is still heavily dependent on fossil fuels”.
In today’s show we look at the change of direction we are seeing from Central Banks, what markets are thinking about ongoing support, and what risks are now flowing from the massive and sustained liquidity injections we have seen since the GFC and more recent times.
But now we are starting to see the cracks come through, as mortgage rates rise, and the risks to property values grow – even one bullish commentator is going bearish, saying when rates rise, as they will, prices will fall significantly.
The hangover is going to be a BIG one!

Today we examine the overnight news and press conference from the FED on monetary policy. Sure they are tapering, but slowly, and in fact their balance sheet continues to grow. Nothing about rate cuts, but the place a big focus on employment. And of course inflation is still temporary….

CBA has partnered with one of the world’s largest regulated crypto exchanges and custodians, Gemini, and leading blockchain analysis firm, Chainalysis. Both partnerships have allowed the bank to design a crypto exchange and custody service that will be offered to customers through a new feature in the app.
The pilot will start in the coming weeks and CBA intends to progressively rollout more features to more customers in 2022. CBA will provide customers with access to up to ten selected crypto assets including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin.
In tonight’s show we will look at the RBA’s notes from today, market reaction to them, plus our latest survey results on household financial stress and scenarios. Will rates rise? What might the impact be? You can ask a question live via YouTube Chat.
