James on Ausbiz this morning

James was on Ausbiz this morning covering US Inflation, Bank Earnings and some ASX news.

RIO +1.14%: delivered a mixed but broadly resilient second-quarter production update today, with a strong recovery across its Pilbara iron ore operations offset by weaker copper output following operational issues at Kennecott in the US.

Question asked 10/07/2026

GEAR – rising to the challenge.

The stock market's long term trend is relentlessly rising, looking at any time frame larger than 1 year the ASX rises... given this, would we not all be best just to buy GEAR and forget everything else? Why stock pick when you can get 250% leverage on a long term ever rising market? I would love to see a chart that overlays the GEAR stock price against the longer term performance of a 'typical' (MM?) growth or other actively managed portfolio. Alain

Question asked 10/07/2026

Commodity Clock

Still on this commodity super cycle - the emperor with no clothes. Someone described the cycle like a clock, with 6 o'clock being the bottom of the cycle and 12 o'clock being the peak, and suggesting that we are currently at about 7 o'clock. So, why are we screaming towards 5 o'clock?
