Inflation, Melbourne's Green Shoots & Negative Gearing | Wilson Monthly Market Update July 29

This month's Wilson Monthly Market Update kicks off with a hard look at the Prime Minister's recent comments on negative gearing reform — and why the reasoning behind restricting it to one or two properties doesn't match how Australian tax law actually works.
