What Mattered Today

The ASX eked out small gains to kick off the week despite oil spiking higher on fresh US-Iran strikes and conflicting statements from each side on whether the Strait of Hormuz remains open to shipping. Six of 11 sectors finished in the red, with most support at the index level coming from the banks, while Telstra (TLS) +1.6% bounced back after last weeks outage.

Question asked 10/07/2026

GEAR – rising to the challenge.

The stock market's long term trend is relentlessly rising, looking at any time frame larger than 1 year the ASX rises... given this, would we not all be best just to buy GEAR and forget everything else? Why stock pick when you can get 250% leverage on a long term ever rising market? I would love to see a chart that overlays the GEAR stock price against the longer term performance of a 'typical' (MM?) growth or other actively managed portfolio. Alain

Question asked 10/07/2026

Commodity Clock

Still on this commodity super cycle - the emperor with no clothes. Someone described the cycle like a clock, with 6 o'clock being the bottom of the cycle and 12 o'clock being the peak, and suggesting that we are currently at about 7 o'clock. So, why are we screaming towards 5 o'clock?
