What a week: RBA rate decision, Aussie market fall leads to panic, Buffett has a quarter-trillion to invest & more

There are years where nothing happen and weeks where years happen. That quote feels particularly relevant after the week we've just seen.

In a big episode of Equity Mates, we'll get you caught up on:

• The RBA's latest decision on interest rates and what it means
• The fall in the Aussie share market and the panic that ensued.
• Importantly, why that panic is overblown
• The falls in the US and Japan, and why they had quite different causes
• Buffett's latest market update, and his $277 billion cash pile
• Ren's out-of-left-field prediction for what Buffett is planning
