The Secret Broker: Staring into the future of 2023. Who’s going to blink first?

After 35 years of stockbroking for some of the biggest houses and investors in Australia and the UK, the Secret Broker is regaling Stockhead readers with his colourful war stories — from the trading floor to the dealer’s desk.
Well, I’m back to my normal routine and Mrs Broker joked with me that she hoped I hadn’t been at a Hooters restaurant, as I would have been staring at the wrong things.
For those of you in the know, Hooters is about to rebrand itself according to Twitter, as millennials are no longer interested in the female assets that attract real men and make other women jealous.
This turned out to be ‘fake news’, so that is one prediction that comes for free and a sigh of relief from half(ish) of the nation.

So, as I wrote about last week, I get my predictions by channelling Nostradamus and staring at a lump of ice in my single malt, until it dissolves and gets consumed.
I hope you all feel for me, as the powers that be demanded 20 predictions and as last year’s came in at 16/20, the pressure was on, one shot at a time.
Predicting that Elon would lose his title as the world’s richest man was my best prediction. I have my 2023 list here, in no particular order, so you will never know the first or the twentieth glass’ predictions.
Only my handwriting would give that bit away. Ha!
So, just like last year, you need to print this off and put it on the fridge as a reminder of what the year ahead will bring.
These of course are my own personal opinions and you need to have your own opinions and reasoning on acting on any of them and that includes you, if you are Penny Wong’s hairdresser.
I think number ten is the sleeping giant, just to give you the heads up and I am researching the current start up scene for investments. If a bot can give you an accurate spoken answer, then there will be no room for sponsored adverts and that is why Google haven’t produced their own.
So, watch this space and pray with me that number twenty comes true.
Happy 2023,
TSB.
