  WiseTech's new CEO on recovering from scandal

  Sep 3, 202631 min

  WiseTech Global is one of Australia's great technology success stories, running CargoWise, the operating system for global trade. But in recent years it's been engulfed in scandal amid grave allegations against founder and former CEO Richard White, which he strenuously denies. On top of that, the company's facing a changing tech and trade landscape thanks to AI. WiseTech's new(ish) CEO Zubin Appoo talks through how to pull a company out of a crisis, and debates whether artificial intelligence will change the game - just like the internet did for Alan's old newspaper jobs. Zubin Appoo, CEO of WiseTech and Alan Kohler unpack it all on That's Business with Alan Kohler. Got a burning business question?

  What's behind the retail results?

  Sep 3, 202624 min

  Australia’s biggest retailers have opened their books - and the numbers tell a pretty revealing story. Woolworths and Coles remain firmly in control, but the numbers show their strategies are shifting. Online sales are surging, shoppers are hunting around for value, Aldi’s growth has slowed, and smaller players are fighting over an increasingly narrow slice of the market. In this special episode of ABC Business Daily, Carrington Clarke is joined by Barrenjoey retail analyst Tom Kierath for a deep dive into what the latest results from Woolworths, Coles, Aldi and others are really telling us.

  The conflicts shaking markets

  Sep 2, 202624 min

  The world economy is being pulled in several directions at once. The war between the US and Iran has flared again, while fears are growing about what a wider escalation in Russia’s war on Ukraine could mean for energy, trade and global markets. In this special episode of ABC Business Daily, Carrington Clarke is joined by Madison Cartwright, a geopolitical and geo-economic analyst who’s now at Commonwealth Bank, to unpack what he is watching - and what it could mean for Australia. And amid all of that, there’s a fresh read on the Australian economy, with new GDP figures showing how growth is tracking and adding another piece to the puzzle ahead of the RBA’s next interest rate decision.

  Do falling property prices create opportunity?

  Aug 31, 202620 min

  "No one wants to catch a falling knife." Australia’s property market is shifting fast. Home values have now fallen for five months in a row, buyer activity is down, auction results are softening, and 93 per cent of capital city suburbs recorded price falls through winter. But falling prices do not mean the same thing for everyone. For some buyers, it could mean opportunity. For sellers and heavily indebted households, the pressure is building. Carrington Clarke and ABC Business Correspondent David Taylor break it all down on ABC Business Daily. Read David Taylor's analysis on the latest property data here . Got a burning business question?

  Can housing take another hike?

  Aug 30, 202621 min

  September is shaping up as a big month for interest rates. In the US, Kevin Warsh is talking tough on inflation, while here at home three of the big four banks now think the RBA could hike again - potentially as soon as next month. So are borrowers on both sides of the Pacific about to be slugged again? And what would that mean for an Australian property sector already under pressure, as the fallout from Bathla Group’s multi-billion-dollar collapse continues? Carrington Clarke and ABC News Business Editor Michael Janda break it all down on ABC Business Daily. Got a burning business question? We'd love to hear your questions!
