The Economy, Decoded with Diana Mousina

WATCH OR LISTEN TO THE Q&A

John Manserra, Financial Adviser Geelong, talks to Diana Mousina, Deputy Chief Economist at AMP

Budget’s out. Rates are up. And if you’ve glanced at the news lately, you’d be forgiven for thinking the whole thing’s about to fall over.

So, we got Diana Mousina, Deputy Chief Economist at AMP, back in front of the camera. She’s our first ever repeat guest, and for good reason. She has a real knack for taking the yawn factor out of economics and sorting the facts from the fear.

HERE’S WHAT WE UNPACK:
✅ The real state of the Aussie economy, and why there’s less to fear than the headlines suggest
✅ Why inflation is creeping back up, and what’s actually driving it
✅ Productivity explained properly, and why your living standards are tied to it
✅ The federal budget in plain English: the capital gains and negative gearing changes
✅ What those budget changes mean for building wealth and buying a home
✅ Where interest rates are headed, and what needs to happen before they come down
✅ The two or three economic indicators actually worth watching
✅ What Diana would do if she were Treasurer for a week
✅ How to handle a twitchy market without making a move you’ll regret

“Volatility is normal. If shares fall 10% it’s too late to do anything by then, so don’t take your money out.”  – Diana Mousina
