Australia's Ruling Coalition Loses Its Majority In Parliament Watch VideoAustralia's ruling coalition has lost its majority in Parliament by one seat. 

A special election was held for that seat in Sydney on Saturday. 

Independent candidate Kerryn Phelps reportedly won the spot with ease. She said the victory should "signal a return of decency, integrity and humanity to the Australian government." 

Prime Minister Scott Morrison's Liberal Party will now have to compromise with independents and the opposition to get anything passed in Parliament. 

The seat Phelps won was left empty after Malcolm Turnbull was ousted as prime minister and resigned from Parliament in August.

At the time, Turnbull reportedly said that "former prime ministers are best out of parliament not in it." 

Australia's had six prime ministers in just over a decade. None of them has successfully finished their first term before being forced out by their own party.  Reported by Newsy 6 hours ago.

Usain Bolt has been offered a contract by Central Coast Mariners, claims sprint legend's agent

Eight-time Olympic sprint champion Usain Bolt has been offered a contract by Australian professional side Central Coast Mariners, according to his agent Ricky Simms.

Speed king Bolt, 32, scored two goals for Mariners in a trial match this month as he seeks a switch to football.

"In response to the media stories, yes, Usain has been offered a contract," Simms was quoted as saying by Fairfax Media, declining to comment further.

Bolt, who retired from track and field last year, was not involved in Mariners' A-League opener against Brisbane Roar on Sunday, after which coach Mike Mulvey said he knew nothing about any contract for the Jamaican.

"That's for a few pay grades above my level," Mulvey was quoted as saying in Australian media. "I do appreciate how important this story is for the rest of the world. "But you have a look at our frontline today and you wonder if he could get into any of those positions, wouldn't you?"

*3D Printing Materials Market by Type (Plastics, Metals, Ceramics), by Form (Powder, Filament, Liquid), by Application (Aerospace & Defense, Medical & Dental, Automotive, Consumer Goods), by Geography (U.S., Canada, U.K., Germany, France, Italy, China, India, Japan, Brazil, South Africa) – Global Market Size, Share, Development, Growth, and Demand Forecast, 2013–2023*NEW YORK, Oct. 24, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- According to the market research report published by P&S Intelligence, 3D printing materials market is projected to reach $1,365.6 million by 2023. The rising need for 3D printing is attributed to the growing adoption of additive manufacturing in different industries such as automotive, aerospace and defense, and construction. Moreover, the growth of the market is also assisted by the supportive government policies, and funding in research and development in the field of 3D printing technology.

*Request to get the sample pages: https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/3d-printing-materials-market/report-sample*

Based on type, the 3D printing materials market has been categorized into plastics, metals, ceramics, and others (including wood and stone, sand, marble, waxes, and edible materials). In terms of volume, plastics held the largest share, accounting for more than 40.0% share of the market in 2017. Plastic being a cost-effective material is a favorable choice for 3D printing across various end-use industries including automotive and consumer electronics.

On basis of form, the 3D printing materials market has been categorized into powder, filament, and liquid. Filament category held the largest share in the market, accounting for more than 50.0% of sales volume in 2017. This is attributed to the fact that different types of filaments such as nylon, photopolymers, and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) can be procured at a lower cost, thereby resulting in higher consumption of filaments as compared to any other 3D printing materials.

Australia: State variations in consumer sentiment - Westpac

$

Matthew Hassan, Senior Economist at Westpac, suggests that improved sentiment in the mining states of Australia has been a significant underlying support to sentiment nationally over the last year.

*Key Quotes*

“Housing may be a bigger driver of state variations going forward.”

“Consumer sentiment doesn't always differ across regions.”

“The survey detail shows state variations on finances tend to be more around current conditions than expectations. On the economy, the divergences tend to be on the 12mth view rather then the 5yr view. Notably, while unemployment expectations are clearly influenced, state variations have not been a major theme for risk aversion up until very recently.”

“State variations in sentiment have narrowed over the last year, reflecting improved reads in the mining states. For headline sentiment, this effect alone is an underlying boost worth about 1-1.5pts. Going forward, differences in housing markets are more likely to be key.” Reported by FXstreet.com 2 hours ago.

Australia: Elections have minimal impact on consumer sentiment - Westpac

$
0
0
Matthew Hassan, Senior Economist at Westpac, suggests that with a Australian Federal election due to by May next year and local political themes very much ‘in the air’ in recent months it is worth reviewing how elections have influenced sentiment in the past.

*Key Quotes*

“Election periods and their results can often impact business confidence and activity, the influence on consumer sentiment looks to be smaller and more nuanced. Some of this is to be expected – an election poll should, provided it does not end in a ‘hung result’ and is an accurate reflection of the popular vote, reflect the broad opinion of consumers and hence be unlikely to be viewed as an unwelcome shock by most.”

“The data seem to confirm this broad idea. Sentiment impacts from Federal elections are hard to pinpoint at an aggregate level. Over the full history, there do appear to have been some negatives when a contest is close and some initial boost when an election results in a change of government.”

“Overall that suggests the headline sentiment response likely depends on the reactions of these large swing and ‘unaligned’ groups.”
