QAV 821 — Roombas, Regulators & Rogue Traders

In episode 821 of the QAV Pod­cast, Cameron and Tony kick things off with tales of gas out­ages and cold show­ers before div­ing into the mar­kets. They review the port­fo­lio per­for­mance, explain the HLS sell-off, and unpack the lat­est antics of Don­ald Trump’s tar­iff diplo­ma­cy. Stocks under the spot­light include VVA (Viva Leisure) with their eye­brow-rais­ing stake in Goril­la X Labs, NRW’s legal wran­gle over the Whyal­la port, and a deep-dive pulled pork on ANZ. The ANZ seg­ment touch­es every­thing from exec­u­tive turnover, the bloat­ed One Plat­form app, sub­stance abuse alle­ga­tions, and the Sun­corp acqui­si­tion, to Cameron’s pre­dic­tion that the whole thing will be scrapped in favour of an AI-dri­ven rebuild. Sprin­kle in some talk about robot secu­ri­ty Room­bas, the lega­cy of Damien Brod­er­ick, Sparks’ new album, and Japan­ese punk, and you’ve got anoth­er vin­tage QAV ses­sion.

QAV 818 — Buffett’s Last Dance

In this episode of QAV Club, record­ed on 6 May 2025, Cameron and Tony unpack the Aus­tralian fed­er­al elec­tion result with the kind of sharp polit­i­cal analy­sis and irrev­er­ent ban­ter you expect. They explore the col­lapse of sup­port for the Lib­er­al Par­ty, the impli­ca­tions for Peter Dut­ton, and the broad­er shifts in Aus­tralian vot­er demo­graph­ics. Then, they piv­ot to War­ren Buffett’s final Berk­shire Hath­away AGM, reflect­ing on his lega­cy, invest­ing phi­los­o­phy, and the future of the com­pa­ny post-Buf­fett. The episode also includes due dili­gence on NRW Hold­ings (NWH), QPM Ener­gy (QPM), and a deep dive pulled pork seg­ment on Motor­cy­cle Hold­ings (MTO). Plus, there’s a lis­ten­er ques­tion on Heal­ius (HLS), and Cameron fields the peren­ni­al para­dox of being a Marx­ist val­ue investor. Oh, and there are motor­cy­cles, AI, and some point­ed shots at Don­ald Trump. Clas­sic QAV.
