Episode Synopsis

Gold has surged past US $4,000 an ounce, hitting record highs as global markets seek refuge amid U.S. fiscal chaos, lower interest rates, and geopolitical tension. In this episode, we explore why gold is booming, what it means for Australia’s economy, and how long the nation’s natural resources can sustain its export engine. Beneath the glitter lies a deeper question: how much longer can Australia keep digging before the ground gives way?Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
