The Trading Story. Behind the finance news
Why do some global disasters barely cause a ripple on the markets while a small blip can cause them crashing? How dependent are the markets on the 24 hour media cycle? Who better to ask than Ticky Fullerton, one of Australia's top business journalists and the host of the daily business finance news report on Sky News Business channel called 'Ticky'. She worked for two decades at the Australian Broadcasting Corporation as a senior finance reporter and investigative reporter for 4corners. The idea behind her hour-long TV finance show is to provide some analysis to the nightly 2 minute finance news, and to investigate further the intersection between business and politics. Ticky talks about breaking news on air within the Australian media landscape and the difference between opinion and fact.
