Happy New Year ! Would love to get your view on Pentanet for 2026. Thanks so much! Josh

Answer

Hi Josh,

Pentanet Ltd (5GG) is a very small $12mn Australian telecom and ISP with a growth focus on high-speed broadband and cloud gaming services, who is attempting to leverage its own network infrastructure and strategic partnerships to differentiate from traditional providers.

The company is unprofitable and burning cash, with a much smaller cash balance than in past years, hence another cap raise feels likely. However, 5GG’s operating cash flow recently improved, which is a good sign that core business revenue and expenses are trending in the right direction – revenue in FY25 was $25mn, up +7% from FY24, and we’ll soon what they did in 1H26 when they report on the 26th February.

5GG is not investable for MM at this stage but it could be at a pivotal point, worth watching.

Weekend Q&A – PART 1/2: The ASX shrugs off Greenland & interest rate headwinds

The ASX 200 finished a choppy week down just -0.5%, recovering from early weakness sparked by President Trump’s threats toward European allies tied to his ambitions around Greenland. While the rhetoric was quickly walked back at Davos, the episode was a reminder of how abruptly geopolitical risk can re-emerge. Yet markets largely shrugged it off, highlighting their resilience to headline-driven volatility. The “buy-the-dip” trade — closely tied to the so-called “TACO trade” (Trump Always Chickens Out) — continues to deliver, at least for now. The market may feel unsettled to many, but it's still up +1.7% year-to-date, dragged higher by a robust materials sector, which has already surged +9.3% in 2026.

The Match Out: Tech stocks finally see some love, ASX up on the day, mildly lower for the week

The ASX finished modestly higher as a rare day of strength for the IT stocks and continued support for the gold miners offset broader caution across banks and consumer shares. While the headlines have cooled through the week, geopolitical tension and rake hike expectations continue to reinforce nervous sentiment, as the market positions for what will likely be a volatile reporting season ahead – both here and in the US.
