- Description
- Australia's housing market is sending mixed signals, with house prices stabilising while affordability remains out of reach for many buyers.
Is this the calm before another boom, or are deeper structural problems keeping home ownership out of reach?
Matt Grudnoff from the Australia Institute explains why falling prices can still create concern, who really benefits when property values rise, and whether investors and economic uncertainty are reshaping the market.
We also examine the risks of housing volatility, the possibility of a market bubble, and what lies ahead for Australian property.

- A new report has uncovered a growing divide between executives and employees over the use of shadow AI, with nearly 70% of C-suite leaders admitting they prioritise speed over security.
Experts warn the gap could expose businesses to cyber threats, compliance failures and reputational damage as AI adoption accelerates.
The findings suggest frontline employees are significantly more cautious than senior leadership, raising questions about governance, accountability and whether organisations are moving faster than their own AI policies can keep up.
What needs to change to restore trust and balance innovation with responsible AI use?
Dr. Karen Sutherland from UniSC explains the risks, the opportunities and what stronger AI oversight could look like.
