Tim Lawless is Australia's most closely watched property data analyst — and right now, the market is moving faster than anyone predicted.

As head of research at Cotality (formerly CoreLogic), Lawless sits at the centre of every major shift in Australian housing. In this conversation, he and Mark Bouris go deep on what the federal budget has done to investor confidence, why the numbers are deteriorating faster than the data can capture, and what the property market realistically looks like from here. Lawless also walks through the economics of holding an investment property in 2026, city by city, with unusual candour about where the opportunities may eventually re-emerge.

Chris Joye is one of Australia's sharpest economic minds — a fund manager, AFR columnist, and architect of the indices used to measure Australian house prices.

In this conversation, Joye delivers a blunt assessment of where Australia is headed economically. He argues the federal budget was a defining moment that exposed the government's agenda: taxing the private sector to fund an expanding public service. He connects that policy shift to rising inflation, falling house prices, and a growing brain drain that few politicians are willing to confront honestly.

Topics covered:
• Why the federal budget was a turning point for Australian economic confidence
• Sydney and Melbourne house prices falling at double-digit annual rates
• The RBA's inflation battle and why interest rates may need to go higher
• Australia's national and state debt crisis and what it means for future taxes
• The case for cutting the NDIS, selling the NBN, and raising the GST
• Why high-net-worth Australians and entrepreneurs are quietly leaving
• Trump's economic model and what Australia could learn from US prosperity

Alan Kohler has spent more than 50 years at the centre of Australian financial journalism — and few people alive have watched this country's booms, busts, and policy shifts with more clarity.

In this conversation, Mark and Alan trace the arc of Australian capitalism from the Poseidon nickel boom of 1969 through to the rise of Elon Musk and the AI era. Alan draws striking parallels between the charismatic deal-makers of the 1980s — Bond, Elliott, Skase — and the story-sellers of today, and explains why irrational exuberance always takes longer to unravel than anyone expects. He also gives a frank assessment of what Australian housing policy has got wrong, why superannuation remains the country's greatest economic achievement, and what capital gains tax reform should actually look like.

We speak about:

• The Poseidon nickel boom and what it taught a 17-year-old copy boy about markets 
• Why every major financial boom has a charismatic figure selling an irresistible story
• Elon Musk, SpaceX, and whether a loss-making $2 trillion company makes any sense
• How Basel banking rules quietly turned Australian banks into mortgage lenders
• The 1999 capital gains tax change that accidentally supercharged the housing market
• Paul Keating, superannuation, and the policy Alan considers Australia's greatest achievement
• Lang Hancock, iron ore, and what real Australian entrepreneurialism looks like
