    Shorting the supermarkets, 5 all weather stocks and Bouris on a housing crash | Switzer Show 3/8/26

    Marty Switzer steps in for Peter this week, with three of the sharpest reads in the market as reporting season opens. FNArena's Rudi Filapek-Vandyck explains why this market has been a minefield, why an ASX earnings "recovery" is really just miners and banks, and names five all-weather stocks to own through the volatility. Shaw and Partners' Adam Dawes unpacks the semiconductor sell-off and the blow-up of a $46 billion hedge fund, weighs whether the AI trade has more to run, and gives three calls for reporting season: two to buy and one supermarket to short. And in a Switzer Show feature, Peter Switzer sits down with Yellow Brick Road's Mark Bouris on whether Australia is heading for a housing crash, what his own loan book is really saying, and what he learned from Donald Trump and Kerry Packer.
