Hey Superheroes, Two inflation prints gave markets exactly what they wanted. U.S. CPI for July eased to 3.4% year on year, down from a high of 4.2% back in May, with producer prices flat on the month. The S&P 500 closed at a fresh record above 7,798 and money market odds of a September Fed […]
It started with a simple observation: investing in Australia was too complicated, too exclusive and stacked against the individual investor. So in 2018, co-founders John Winters and Wayne Baskin set out to fix it, by building the platform they wished existed. Eight years on, that platform has become something bigger. What began as low-cost share […]
Hola Superheroes, Records everywhere and yet markets can’t quite relax. The ASX 200 closed at a fresh record on Wednesday 5 August at 9,227.8 points. Thursday’s session extended the run of record highs, with the index climbing to 9,286 in early trade before closing near Wednesday’s level. Gold held above $4,100 an ounce through the […]

Hey Superheroes, Two of the Magnificent Seven just beat revenue expectations but still sold off. Alphabet closed down 7.1% and Tesla down 14.5% on Thursday 23 July, wiping out roughly $300 billion and $200 billion in market value respectively.

The S&P 500 gained 14.9% and the Nasdaq surged 21.4%, powered by semiconductor and AI-linked earnings rebound.
