About this episode

The episode discusses the reasons behind the stability of natural gas prices in Australia despite international fluctuations and features news about Apple CEO Tim Cook's upcoming resignation.

When Russia launched its full scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, it sent the price of natural gas soaring - and Australian consumers faced steep hikes in their electricity bills. But this time around, when war has once again sent the international price of gas skywards, Australia has remained relatively insulated. So what’s different this time? And big news from tech today, with the announcement that Apple CEO Tim Cook is stepping down in September. What will Cook's successor need to keep front of mind? Carrington Clarke and ABC Chief Business Correspondent Ian Verrender break it all down on ABC Business Daily. Got a burning business question?
