In this episode of Virtually Live, Shannon Rivkin covers: the ANZ takeover of Suncorp (SUN), the US recession, S&P 500, an ASX rebound, government bonds, Altamin (AZI), and Vectus Biosystems (VBS).
In this week’s show
- 0:18 – General market update
- 1:25 – Q1: As an ANZ Shareholder, just wondering your thoughts on the ANZ entitlement offer please?
- 3:44 – Q2: Hi What is your thoughts on anz sun take over?
- 7:31 – Q3: Is there any advice in relation to the ANZ takeover of SUN and the recent advice from ANZ “Announcement of Retail Entitlement Offer”?
- 7:40 – Q4: What happened to the US recession? Could it still happen ? I watched one analyst predict the S&P 500 would drop to 3100. But I’m also seeing a relatively strong rebound in the ASX. Are markets off and running again or is caution still advised?
- 10:56 – Q5: Was curious about government bonds. I see you can use the ASX to purchase and they pay a monthly distribution as to buying a 10 year bond. Is there any pitfalls?
- 13:48 – Q6: I bought a small amount of Altamin (AZI) as a spec play prior to the off-market takeover offer by V B S Exchange. Could you please comment on the likelihood of success, the potential for further bidders and/or an increase in the offer price.
