Portfolio updates, buy list, and last week’s episode notes.
QAV AU 832 — The Business of Barnyard Medicine
In this episode, Cameron and Tony dig into a big week of market news and company updates. They kick off with the ASX’s latest blunder—confusing TPG Capital with TPG Telecom—sparking a dive into the stock exchange’s operational woes and competitive threats. The conversation shifts to the broader market’s strong performance and a fiery TikTok rebuttal on negative gearing, leading to a deep dive into housing policy, rental markets, and generational wealth-building. Reporting season highlights include strong moves from Credit Corp, Austal, Vault, Perenti, Eroad, and Korvest, plus an examination of Ingham’s ongoing R&D tax dispute with the ATO. Listener questions cover IDA’s sharp price drop, QBE’s results reaction, and a 60 Minutes segment on Energy Transition Minerals. Tony’s “Pulled Pork” focuses on Apiam Animal Health (AHX), a rural vet business roll-up with M&A potential. The after-hours segment touches on Bowie’s The Man Who Fell to Earth, the Trump biopic The Apprentice, and Ali vs. Foreman’s “Rumble in the Jungle.”
