Nike has lost its edge.

More than US$230 billion has been wiped from its market value since its 2021 peak, and its share price is now back around levels last seen more than a decade ago.

For a brand that has dominated global sport for generations, that’s a remarkable fall. So what went wrong? Was it China, competition, brand dilution - or simply a business that stopped setting the pace?

ABC Business reporters Lin Lin and Dan Ziffer unpack how Nike ended up being dropped from the top 100 companies on the US share market, and what its slide tells us about the risks facing even the biggest global brands, on ABC Business Daily.

One Nation wants Australians paying rent or a mortgage to take more of their superannuation home now - but what could that cost them later?

The proposal has ignited a political fight, with One Nation Treasury spokesperson Barnaby Joyce arguing people should be trusted with their own money. 

But behind the rhetoric are much bigger economic questions about retirement balances, inflation, interest rates and Australia’s $4.4 trillion super system.

ABC Business Editor Michael Janda and ABC Business Correspondent David Taylor unpack what One Nation is actually proposing, what we learned from the COVID-era experiment with early super access - and whether the numbers behind this latest pitch stack up - on ABC Business Daily.

Satyajit Das thinks another major global financial crisis might be coming - and soon.

He was warning about dangerous debt structures well before the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. Now, with inflation still sticky, interest rates elevated, debt piling up and huge amounts of money pouring into AI, he thinks the pressure is building again. But what breaks first?

In this special episode of ABC Business Daily, former banker and financial commentator Satyajit Das joins ABC Business Editor Michael Janda to unpack the risk of “Bondmageddon”, whether the world has become too dependent on cheap money, and how the AI boom could become another fault line in the financial system.

WiseTech Global is one of Australia's great technology success stories, running CargoWise, the operating system for global trade.

But in recent years it's been engulfed in scandal amid grave allegations against founder and former CEO Richard White, which he strenuously denies. On top of that, the company's facing a changing tech and trade landscape thanks to AI.

WiseTech's new(ish) CEO Zubin Appoo talks through how to pull a company out of a crisis, and debates whether artificial intelligence will change the game - just like the internet did for Alan's old newspaper jobs.

Zubin Appoo, CEO of WiseTech and Alan Kohler unpack it all on That's Business with Alan Kohler.

Australia’s biggest retailers have opened their books - and the numbers tell a pretty revealing story.

Woolworths and Coles remain firmly in control, but the numbers show their strategies are shifting. Online sales are surging, shoppers are hunting around for value, Aldi’s growth has slowed, and smaller players are fighting over an increasingly narrow slice of the market.

In this special episode of ABC Business Daily, Carrington Clarke is joined by Barrenjoey retail analyst Tom Kierath for a deep dive into what the latest results from Woolworths, Coles, Aldi and others are really telling us.

The world economy is being pulled in several directions at once.

The war between the US and Iran has flared again, while fears are growing about what a wider escalation in Russia’s war on Ukraine could mean for energy, trade and global markets.

In this special episode of ABC Business Daily, Carrington Clarke is joined by Madison Cartwright, a geopolitical and geo-economic analyst who’s now at Commonwealth Bank, to unpack what he is watching - and what it could mean for Australia.

And amid all of that, there’s a fresh read on the Australian economy, with new GDP figures showing how growth is tracking and adding another piece to the puzzle ahead of the RBA’s next interest rate decision.

Catch up on the political impacts of the GPD result on our sister podcast, Politics Now, here.

"No one wants to catch a falling knife."

Australia’s property market is shifting fast. Home values have now fallen for five months in a row, buyer activity is down, auction results are softening, and 93 per cent of capital city suburbs recorded price falls through winter.

But falling prices do not mean the same thing for everyone. For some buyers, it could mean opportunity. For sellers and heavily indebted households, the pressure is building.

Carrington Clarke and ABC Business Correspondent David Taylor break it all down on ABC Business Daily.

September is shaping up as a big month for interest rates.

In the US, Kevin Warsh is talking tough on inflation, while here at home three of the big four banks now think the RBA could hike again - potentially as soon as next month.

So are borrowers on both sides of the Pacific about to be slugged again? And what would that mean for an Australian property sector already under pressure, as the fallout from Bathla Group’s multi-billion-dollar collapse continues?

YouTube, TikTok and Instagram are full of "content creators", but very few turn it into a profitable business.

Brisbane comedy duo, Marty and Michael, got their start doing silly stunts on Facebook. More than a decade later, they have nine staff and 13 million followers across social media platforms. They've worked with US "Jackass" comedians and built a brand from that same style of fearless comedy.

Marty and Michael join Alan Kohler to discuss the highs and lows (and there have definitely been some lows) of building a comedy empire. They chat about building an audience, making money from content and the challenges of turning social media into a sustainable career.

There’s been a dramatic shift in interest rate predictions among some of Australia’s biggest banks today with CBA joining ANZ in predicting we’ll get a hike in November. NAB says the RBA likely to act next month.

So is more borrower pain all but certain to deal with Australia’s inflation problem? 

And in the US, Meta has tried to minimise its pain by settling a massive court case avoiding the ignominy of their CEO being forced to take the stand, but is this the end of their legal woes?
