  Buy Hold Sell: Hot themes, cold calls - 6 thematic ETFs rated

  Aug 18, 202613 min

  Thematic ETFs offer something that broad index funds can't - a concentrated, conviction-driven vehicle built on the belief that a particular trend will define the future. Just look at the space tech ETFs that launched this year. But as we know, what's in favour today can be out of favour tomorrow. Markets follow narratives, and yesterday's hot thing can become next year's toxic ex. In this episode of Buy Hold Sell , Adam Dawes from Shaw and Partners and Andrew Wielandt from DP Wealth Advisory sort the hot from the not, the break-ups from the make-ups, across six thematic ETFs in technology, semiconductors, healthcare, cryptocurrency and property. This episode was filmed Friday 14th August, 2026.

  Buy Hold Sell: 6 giant ETFs rated (VAS, QUAL, NDQ plus more)

  Aug 16, 202614 min

  Size isn't everything...or is it? Australia's ETF industry continues to break records, with $6.8 billion pouring in during July alone and the momentum shows no sign of slowing down. The Betashares Australian ETF Review for the previous month notes that flows into international equities led the charge, and that income, in particular, remained a strong theme for ETF investors. With recent tax reforms and a softening property market, it seems no surprise that flows into fixed income and equity- income ETFs combined reached a new record. But bigger doesn't always mean better, and just because a product is popular, it doesn't necessarily mean it's right for your portfolio. As both our guests call out in this episode, does it actually do what it says on the tin? And are you doubling up on the same stocks across multiple ETFs without realising it? With some of the largest funds heavily concentrated in a handful of the same names, how much diversification are you actually getting? In this episode of Buy Hold Sell , Adam Dawes from Shaw and Partners and Andrew Wielandt from DP Wealth Advisory put the six largest ETFs on the ASX across different asset classes to the test. This episode was filmed Friday, 14th August 2026.

  Buy Hold Sell: 5 durable ASX stocks for uncertain times

  Aug 6, 202614 min

  A Livewire reader recently reached out to us to suggest now is the time for investors to be looking for those durable businesses that could offer some resistance to things like AI, rate hikes and oil prices. The ASX industrials sector seems an obvious place to look, given it's full of stable companies that have endured through the years. But many industrials stocks are also directly exposed to those same macro factors that have help make equities markets a bit of a minefield. So how do you find the stocks that can deliver resilience? In this episode of Livewire's Buy Hold Sell , Hailey Kim from Wilson Asset Management and Daniel Moore from IML join Livewire's Tom Stelzer to dive into three heavyweight industrial stocks that could offer that durability right now, as well as a pick each of their own.

  Buy Hold Sell: Making the call on 3 communications stocks (and 2 guest picks)

  Jul 30, 202611 min

  The Telstra outage of a few weeks ago was a fitting bookend to FY26 the ASX communications sector. It may have fared better than tech and healthcare, but the sector ended the financial year down 12.5% as macro, structural and cyclical threats took their toll. So what does the next year offer? In this episode of Buy Hold Sell, Livewire's Tom Stelzer is joined by IML's Daniel Moore and Wilson Asset Management's Hailey Kim to dissect three communication names and decide if they're worth picking up or letting go through to voicemail. They also each bring a stock pick of their own - one an entertainment business with strong assets and a beaten-down market leader with double-digit earnings growth.

  Buy Hold Sell: 6 ASX stocks in the doghouse - which will bark back in FY27?

  Jul 23, 202621 min

  Every relationship has its ups and downs. And every year, misunderstandings, broken promises and poor behaviour create a special list that no company wants to end up on - the Dogs of the ASX. These are the stocks that have been punished by the market and banished to the proverbial doghouse. This list is based on the "Dogs of the Dow" strategy, popularised by Michael O'Higgins in the early 90s - a systematic bet on mean reversion. Buy the worst performers from a large-cap index and wait for them to come back. The trick is picking which ones actually will. Hugh Dive from Atlas Funds Management has been tracking the Dogs of the ASX since 2011. In his FY26 breakdown , he notes that last year's cohort returned 66%. What makes this year's list unusual is the names on it. WiseTech, Xero, CSL, Pro Medicus...stocks that not long ago would have sat at the top of every quality growth manager's portfolio. Much like a bad breakup, it's not always fair or justified, and it's not always the full story. In this episode of Buy Hold Sell, Hugh and Jason Teh from Vertium Asset Management debate four of the biggest dogs in the top 10 and share their turnaround picks. This episode was filmed Wednesday 22nd July 2026.
