Welcome to this week’s HotCopper Wire, our market watch podcast! Each week, HotCopper’s senior markets reporter Jonathon Davidson and I take you through the week’s biggest news headlines — and what they mean for Oz investors.

In this Week 46 episode, we talk about lithium’s supposed revival (especially with how the spodumene prices have been tracking) and how Mineral Resources (ASX:MIN) has been moving (recovering) recently.

Before that: The U.S. Government shutdown and when it may end, an update on China’s trade, and Commonwealth Bank’s (ASX:CBA) surprise quarterly dump.
