The 2018 Australian Federal budget will be revealed this week and Kingsley shares with us what the market is predicting.

He also gives his outlook on the Aussie dollar.

We also talk about US President Donald Trump's upcoming meet with US officials who went to China to negotiate with Beijing over trade. The Trump administration had demanded a $200 billion cut in the Chinese trade surplus with the US, sharply lower tariffs and advanced technology subsidies.

Can we expect markets to be further impacted by this?

Listen in.
