About this listen
The Reserve Bank’s shock decision not to cut rates will hurt mortgage holders and the economy.
On this episode of Dollars & Sense, substitute Greg (Matt Grudnoff) returns to discuss Trump’s Big Pharma tariffs, the privatisation of childcare, and why the RBA got it wrong in its latest interest rate decision.
This discussion was recorded on Wednesday 9 July 2025 and things may have changed since recording.
