What a Commodity Supercycle Would Mean for Australia - Greg Cassidy | Milford

Описание: Commodity markets are back in focus.

Gold has more than doubled in recent years. Lithium has flipped from surplus to deficit and iron ore continues to quietly underpin the Australian economy.

So is this the start of something bigger, like a commodity super-cycle

In this episode, we’re joined by Greg Cassidy, Senior Analyst at Milford, to unpack the forces driving the global resource rally and what it means for adviser portfolios.

We cover:
The three macro forces behind the surge: deglobalisation, decarbonisation and AI.
The outlook for LNG.
Why iron ore still matters most for Australia’s budget and equity index.
Greg’s key takeaway for advisers: why “you should own resources” and how to think about active vs passive exposure in a volatile sector.
