The author has been described by News Ltd as an "iconoclast", "Svengali", a pollie's "economist muse", and "pungently accurate". Fairfax says he is a "Renaissance man" and "one of Australia’s most respected analysts." Stephen Koukoulas concludes that he is "85% right", and "would make a great Opposition leader." Terry McCrann claims the author thinks "‘nuance’ is a trendy village in the south of France", but can be "scintillating" when he thinks "clearly". The ACTU reckons he’s "an enigma wrapped in a Bloomberg terminal, wrapped in some apparently well-honed abs."

First post here...

Hey there, I have been writing for Business Spectator since January 2009. While I will continue cross-posting most of the content here to my Business Spectator blog, I wanted a more flexible medium through which to communicate (Biz Spec is not able to process posts on weekends or after work). This is, not, therefore, intended to replace my Biz Spec site, but rather just to augment it for those readers that want to catch posts over the weekend, late at night, or in real-time while I am on the run. As regular readers over at Business Spectator know, I have a heavy concentration on financial economics, residential real estate markets, government policy, and anything else that happens to take my fancy.
