About this episode

Rate cuts, rate cuts, rate cuts. The financial media has been abuzz with the prospect of a rate cut in the US (despite annual inflation ticking up from 2.7% to 2.9% in its most recent reading).


Today we're unpacking what you need to know.


We're also sharing some timely advice from Nick Griffin, CIO of Munro Partners, about how to manage the noise at a time like this.


That's not all we're covering in another big episode of Equity Mates:

  • How to optimise your investments within Superannuation
  • We review a listeners portfolio
  • Discuss the opportunities to build passive income through ETFs
