At The Australian:
Magellan Financial Group chairman and chief investment officer Hamish Douglass has accused the nation’s parliamentarians of whipping up “xenophobic” sentiment about China and playing “national security out as a political issue”, undermining Australia’s most important economic relationship.
…”I don’t see the coronavirus issue being in any way tied in the geopolitical and economic issues between and Australia and China. The coronavirus is largely a short term economic impact that won’t have longer term ramifications,’’ Mr Douglass said.
