About the episode

US and Israel’s offensive in Iran has rattled global markets. However, the Australian sharemarket reversed earlier losses, as rising commodity prices saw investors pile into energy and gold stocks, offsetting losses in other sectors.

Amelia O'Carrigan, Ranstad Director of Public Sector and Business Support spoke to Stephanie Youssef about this, and the emerging generational divide.
