OPINION

Recent Opinion for the Income Portfolio

14/05/2025 17:17

Commonwealth Bank (CBA) $165.50

CBA +0.82%: A solid 3Q25 trading update from CBA today with no surprises, other than confirmation that business lending has accelerated.

13/05/2025 09:43

Commonwealth Bank (CBA) $167.18

CBA has been a huge beneficiary of the “safe” money pouring into the ASX, but it doesn’t matter how great a company is; it still has a fair valuation.

09/05/2025 09:22

National Storage REIT (NSR) $2.38

NSR recently bought a “blocking” 5% stake in Abacus Storage King (ASK), making us ponder whether they want to avoid competition from massive US player Public Storage and/or if they're thinking, “If you're going to come, we want to make some easy money on the way.” So far, NSR has said they have no plans to make a competitive bid, which would dent NSR's share price at least in the short term.

08/05/2025 17:26

Super Retail Group (SUL)

SUL +0.67%: A volatile session for SUL, mirroring the performance of JB Hi Fi (JBH) yesterday with the shares sold off early, down around 6% at the lows before finishing up on the day following the release of a trading update as part of the Macquarie Conference.

08/05/2025 09:24

BHP Group Ltd (BHP) $37.93

BHP is down around 4% in 2025, slightly underperforming the ASX200, which is up +0.2%. The world's largest miner depends on China's economy, with over 60% of its revenue coming from the world's second-largest economy in FY24.

08/05/2025 09:20

JB Hi-Fi (JBH) or Super Retail (SUL)

JBH experienced a sharp initial 6% decline after the retailer reported 3Q sales growth that was lower than their last update in January (6% vs 7.1% prior run-rate) with The Good Guys a major reason, although virtually all of the knee-jerk bearish reaction had evaporated by the market's close.
