Today we speak to Seb Mullins, Head of Multi-Asset and Fixed Income, Australia at Schroders. The past few months in markets have been a wild ride. After Trump's election the US market was up double-digits as investors thought tax cuts and deregulation would be great for stocks. Now, just months later, the tech-heavy Nasdaq is in a technical correction and European and Chinese markets are up double-digits. Our guest today thinks we should get used to this wild ride, because we're seeing a new normal for the market. Volatility is back. But rather than being nervous, Seb believes we should be excited. For it is in these volatile markets that great opportunities get presented. So strap in, focus on what matters, and get ready. According to Seb, stock picking is back. —------This episode has been sponsored by Schroders.

Today we speak to Sam Gordon, founder of Australian Property Scout, and host of two podcasts: Scouting Australia and The Top 1%.While the popular narrative may be that Australian property only goes up, property moves in cycles and different parts of Australia move through the cycle at different times. Right now, Sydney is flat, Melbourne is falling, while Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth are enjoying double-digit growth. But what are the signs that these days of double-digit growth may be over - that is the question we put to Sam. We then discuss Sam's experience renovating properties. The good, the bad, the ugly, we learn form Sam's experiences. What can you do yourself, where should you get professional help, and what offers the most bang for your buck?
