Dear Reader, ‘The worsening relationship between China and Australia is like a bad marriage where one partner is almost entirely to blame’, reported The Australian on 27 August. My report, published on 23 July, titled ‘The Day Australia and China Officially Divorced’, got a one-month jump on them. The good news for you is this. The investment strategy I’ve calibrated to do quite well during increasingly sour relations between China and Australia is just as applicable. It’s as easy and cost-effective to put in place as it was when I first went public with it in July. But that may not be the case a few months from now. It’s not out of the ordinary for the mainstream financial media to get onto our investment stories and write florid articles about them after we’ve broken them months earlier. It’s rare that they do it so blatantly, though. I know we push a lot of investment ideas and varying angles your way. But I really think you should take a look at China’s latest labelling of Australia as ‘treacherous and disrespectful’. I’ve been right about this theme all along. I’m not xenophobic. It’s the ruling party that are calling the shots. Elites like we have in all other corners of the world. Nothing to do with the Chinese people. My point is simply that the leaderships of Australia and China are at loggerheads. They’re in the midst of a divorce. The mainstream is now cottoning on to that But it will take some time to filter through to how this affects the Aussie economy — and certain ASX stocks. You’ve got a big opportunity here to invest in a story for Australia that could have bigger implications for your investments or retirement portfolio than the COVID virus. When the mainstream news starts doing repeats of what we did a few months ago, you know you’re on to something.

And what investment moves you might want to consider making with all this in mind. Regards, Greg Canavan,
