Have you bought the Get Started Investing book? If you have, thank you! But the real question is... has it arrived yet? Cause chances are, probably not... Aside from it being endlessly frustrating that Australia Post is being so slow, Bryce and Alec talk about how your online shopping order not arriving for a couple of days (which feels like a first world problem) is actually symptomatic of a larger issue, with freight earnings climbing to their highest peak since 2008. They talk about whether this is going to effect inflation, and what impact it will have on your investing. The guys also talk about the downfall of the hedge fund heroes, Facebook’s obsession with the Metaverse, and Ren takes on Cathie Wood’s Bitcoin thesis… You can find the article about the Metaverse by Matthew Ball here.

It's the third of our Equity Mates Quartr specials, where we listen to the earnings calls of companies that interest us. Using the app Quartr, we've been taking out the best bits and talking about what it means. Because for a long time now we’ve had a gripe with earnings calls. Why?
