It's an EPIC episode - jam packed! First, if you didn't get the reminder, FinFest is now being postponed until 26 October 2024. This episode, we're chatting to Julian McCormack, because we want to know if this bull market is real (and where do we go from here?) Then Alec brings us more of his time with his coach, sensei, mentor Andrew Page - together they chat about the current markets, the AI hype, Apple's new venture into the vision goggles - and Alec finally cracks the code of the secret WA company. (Spoiler, it's ASX:SGI). Also the guys take the time to jump on the phone and chat to an Equity Mate community member. Visit equitymates.com/contact to get involved. Want more Equity Mates?

First up - some regrettable news. We have decided to postpone FinFest until 2024.Last year, we put in a tremendous amount of effort to launch FinFest, and we couldn't have achieved it without your support and the backing of our partners. The current economic climate and cost of living crisis has seen many businesses reduce marketing budgets. As a result, it has become impossible to deliver FinFest 2023 at the scale and quality we desire. We don't want to compromise the experience we created for you last year.

We were so excited to be joined by Matt Barrie - founder and CEO of Freelancer Limited - for his thoughts on one big topic: the Australian property market. He recently delivered the opening keynote for the Sydney Morning Herald's Sydney 2050 Summit. His talk was titled, 'The Great Australian Scream'. This is an epic conversation - Matt elaborates on all the points he made in his speech, and left us with a lot to think about.Sharesight makes the whole tracking process super straightforward and is the best product we have come across in the market to track your investment portfolio.It has the ability to track the price, performance and dividends from 240,000+ global stocks, crypto, ETFs and funds.

We're back with our Ask An Adviser series - this time joined by Andrew Wilson, Managing Director at Wilson CA. He chats to us about finding those deductions and offsets you could be eligible for this EOF - helping us ensure we claim everything we're legitimately entitled to (especially for anyone working from home!)Then we get into investing - he explains franking credits (and what you need to know before EOFY), the implications if you're receiving income from overseas sources or foreign assets, and just what implications those wonderful dividend reinvestment plans might have on that tax return.Sharesight makes the whole tracking process super straightforward and is the best product we have come across in the market to track your investment portfolio.

Bryce and Alec are back from the US - Alec has almost recovered from his cold - and they're ready to chat about what's happened in the markets to date in 2023. So much for a tough year... ASX 200 is up 2%, the S&P 500 is up 9% and the best performer is the Nikkei 225 - which is up 20%! We reflect on what our predictions were at the start of the year - looks like we got a couple in the bag, but mostly it was a classic case of recency bias - 2022 was tough, so banks just predicted more of the same in 2023. Later in the episode, Bryce catches up with his coach and mentor Henry Jennings, for more of a chat about his investment strategy - they're trying to work out how he might reduce his investing landscape to a couple of key stocks. Get in touch, tell us what you want Bryce to chat about in his sessions with Henry, and more of what you want us to discuss!
