Welcome to this week's episode of the Money and Investing Show with Andrew Baxter and co-host Mitch.

In this episode, we’re asking a fun but insightful question — If stocks were people at a party, who’s charming, who’s awkward, and who’s best avoided? From reliable dividend payers like ANZ to high-flying innovators such as Nvidia, and even the unpredictable guests like Qantas, Andrew break down what these personalities reveal about the market and your portfolio.

Expect sharp insights into market fundamentals, dividend reliability, and the behavioural traits that shape how different stocks perform under pressure. It’s a creative way to understand investing, risk, and return through the lens of human behaviour.

Tune in to find out which “guest” might deserve a place in your portfolio — and which you should politely show the door.
