Australia’s bounty: is it just diversified luck?

Increases in commodity prices have fuelled global inflation while benefiting commodities exporters like Australia. Oftentimes, booms lead to busts and investors need to get the timing right on pricing cycles to be successful.

Just how reliant on China are we?

China takes 40% of our exports and BHP, RIO and Fortescue generate 41% of Australian listed company profits. Trade tensions are hitting more companies and they need to diversify their revenue sources.

Red wine and our green reputation in China

China’s growing middle class is providing export opportunities for Australia outside the traditional resources, travel and education sectors. 'Clean and green' supports food and health products, with wine the big mover.

Taxpayers betrayed by Future Fund debacle
