This week, Chanticleer columnists James Thomson and Anthony Macdonald take you inside the mysterious world of bond markets, and explain what’s got the world’s most important investors rather grumpy. They ask why many of the country's biggest companies don’t seem that keen on investing in Australia and whether there’s something a bit sick about your health insurance.
This podcast is sponsored by Workday.
