It’s a world away from the mass marketing of global skincare companies, for which a skin analysis is limited to “problem” “dry” or “Oily t-zone”.

This time the short seller homed in on WiseTech’s history of poor acquisitions and alleged the logistics software group had misled investors on the real rates of customer attrition from its main product CargoWise. The shares were hit a second time - down another 12 per cent in an hour. Once again WiseTech halted trading in order to respond to the latest salvo. Loading The hapless investors that may have wanted to sell can do little but strain their necks as they watch the two combatants, that are locked in a high stakes argument, lob insults back and forth. And with so much smoke it is extremely difficult for shareholders to know who to believe. Even if WiseTech’s accounts are pristine there remains one logical reason that investors should be concerned. The stock is trading on a price-earnings multiple of almost 150 times which means it is wildly expensive. This company listed in 2016 for $3.35 a share and until last week was trading at more than $33.

The campaign, called Your Right To Know, was stepped up on Monday with major newspapers publishing "redacted" front pages and media outlets uniting to seek six law reforms to curb the suppression of information. Loading National Seniors chief advocate Ian Henschke said the royal commission into aged care was an example of the need for transparency in business and government because the inquiry only came after the disclosure of abuse. "We wouldn't be having an aged care royal commission if it wasn't for people filming secretly," he said. "We need freedom for people to provide evidence to inquiries such as the royal commission into aged care and the banking royal commission." Council on the Ageing chief executive Ian Yates said the problem was not always the law that limited the press but the laws that prevent departments and agencies releasing information.

In another excerpt, Prince Harry admits that the media scrutiny has meant his mental health is something he’s had to work on – again. The frank admission comes on the heels of their lawsuit against The Mail on Sunday for publishing the private letter Markle had sent to her father. For context, Prince Andrew has been accused of crimes involving Jeffrey Epstein, and yet it’s Meghan who dominates royal coverage. It might be easy to dismiss these type of interviews as a self-indulgent plea for special treatment from two of the world’s most privileged and wealthy people. It might be tempting to say, “Well, she knew what she was getting … [Read more...] about Meghan Markle is privileged, sure, but lacks freedom to defend herself

The Future of Work by Australian Graduates report by the Australia Institute said vocational degrees tied to occupations including healthcare, engineering and teaching have the best employment rates. "This suggests that part of the solution to graduate employment challenges are better strategies for directly linking degrees to jobs: for example, through paid placements, occupational licensing, and accreditation," report co-author Jim Stanford said. Chief executive of peak body Universities Australia Catriona Jackson said its data shows graduates continue to command “a strong employability edge overall”. Ms Jackson said universities had an emphasis on practical workplace experience as part of degrees. “Almost half a million uni students had the opportunity in 2017 to get practical workplace experience as part of their university study and we know that helps prepare them for a long and successful career,” she said.
