Markets greet Poop Morrison with a whimper

David Llewellyn-Smith

It’s the Scoblow. AUD up 30 pips but still well down:

Couple of pips on bonds:

Much the same for equities:

Big Iron down again:

Big Gas up:

Big Gold is off to the woodshed now:

Big Mortgage bounced with ScoMo but not much:

Same with Big Property:

Some relief that there is no potato perhaps but the calculus for Coalition survival does not change. Cut immigration or die.
