The job switching trend that emerged during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic appears to be over, new data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics this week shows. The number of employees changing jobs fell to just 8.0 per cent in 12 months to February, which is back to around levels typically seen in the five years leading up to the pandemic and a marked drop from the 9.6 per cent recorded for the year to February 2023. It’s a similar story over in the US, where many workers are complaining about feeling stuck in their jobs. As a result, companies are creating new opportunities such as letting them apply for temporary positions on other teams, working in new cities for a few months, and expanding some roles to provide new challenges.

While more than half of all ASX 200 CEOs and executive teams are now judged and compensated on their ability to achieve climate-related goals, 2024 was also the year that ESG talk gave way to ESG pragmatism. With Australian climate regulation coming into effect over the next few months, companies are gradually realising the monumental scale of what it means to meet their ESG goals while still maintaining profitability. As a consequence, companies that missed their ambitious ESG targets are slowly walking them back, according to The Australian Financial Review. Among the reasons given for throwing in the towel: Unclear or inconsistent regulation, insufficient government support, delays in the rollout or development of new technology, and concerns that they could be held legally accountable for failure to meet their publicly stated ESG goals.

Guzman y Gomez’s (GYG) highly anticipated IPO finally got off the ground yesterday, with shares surging 36%, placing a $3bn market cap on the company. Today’s papers are awash with ecstatic photos of GYG founder and CEO Steven Marks and his team jumping for joy in their yellow hoodies at the ASX yesterday. But as everyone knows, the jury is still well and truly out on whether this Mexican-themed media darling will be able to hit its ambitious growth targets in the coming years. This week, The Australian Financial Review's Chanticleer pondered whether the market had lost its mind over the GYG float, and overnight Street Talk released leaked information that GYG has a history of missing targets. Reflecting on yesterday’s float, Modano founder Michael Hutchens said: “The public markets Ponzi is alive and kicking, it will be fascinating to see how it all unfolds over the coming 12 months.” Indeed it will...

A great initiative from Cannings client, Sydney Desalination Plant Pty Limited. #Seagrass #Desalination
Did you know that just off the shores of Kurnell in Sydney's south, scientists from UNSW Science and the teams at Veolia Australia and New Zealand and Gamay Rangers are working hard to restore seagrass colonies to provide a safe refuge for seahorses, fish and invertebrates? The Sydney Desalination Plant proudly supports this important initiative by helping the scientists regrow seagrass that’s been washed up on local beaches. Special tanks have been set up outside our intake facility for seagrass segments to recover and regrow while receiving a constant stream of seawater from our supplies. Some of the scientists involved will be in Italy this week for the 2024 World Seagrass Conference. Here, scientists will discuss ways to tackle seagrass challenges using projects just like this one in Kurnell. #WorldSeagrassConference2024 #Seagrass #Desalination #SydneyDesalinationPlant #Water

Riddle me this: What’s the latest growth segment for media companies? If you guessed puzzles, you’d be correct. Media outlets are increasingly getting into games and puzzles to grow their subscriber base. The Sydney Morning Herald’s Good Weekend Quiz is the first thing many think of on a Saturday morning and millions solve puzzles like The New York Times' Wordle every day. According to The New York Times, newspapers have included word games and brain teasers for more than a century, with The New York World publishing the first crossword on its “Fun” page in 1913. Puzzles can entice new subscribers and engage existing consumers long enough to try other products, like podcasts, sports and hard news.

Plenty of economists, including KPMG’s Dr Brendan Rynne, are warning Australia is a “heartbeat away from being in a recession” after the latest GDP figures showed economic growth was a meagre 0.1 per cent in the first three months of this year. Treasurer Jim Chalmers is playing down the prospect of a recession, insisting Australia is faring better than many other developed economies and that the cost-of-living measures in last month’s Budget will keep the economy ticking along. Time will tell who’s right – the economists or Dr Chalmers. In the meantime, consider what’s going on in the US, where commentators say there’s the “vibe” of a recession because Americans feel gloomy about the economy despite low unemployment, slowing inflation and the stock market rising. “Call it the vibecession,” The New York Times columnist Jeanna Smialek wrote.

Last week, members of the Cannings team attended the Australasian Investor Relations Association (AIRA) Conference, which was all about navigating a changing economic and regulatory environment. The conference touched on the influence of Artificial Intelligence (AI), ESG, and small cap strategies. It was a great to hear first hand from ASIC and the Reserve Bank of Australia about their policy and regulatory priorities, and a fantastic opportunity to meet other investor relations professionals. #InvestorRelations #StrategicCommunications #AIRAConference
