    Sydney rents surge $40 with no relief ahead
    Jan 7 2026
    Sydney weekly rents have increased by more than $40 in the past year, rising approximately 5% to above $2,000 per week in parts of the eastern suburbs and North Sydney. The cheapest rental suburbs include Karamah, Tarmor, Katoomba, Cabramatta, Canley Vale and Lamia, while the most vacant rentals are found in Currajong Heights, Menangle Park, Bidwell, Barangaroo, North St Mary's, Mount Karengai, East Gardens and Zetland. Property experts predict no relief in 2025, with supply being chronically outweighed by demand across Sydney's rental market.

  • Trump's Greenland ambitions spark NATO tensions

    Trump's Greenland ambitions spark NATO tensions
    Jan 7 2026
    President Donald Trump's administration has announced regime change in Venezuela and expressed interest in acquiring Greenland, prompting warnings from Danish officials that such moves could signal the end of NATO. The White House is framing these actions through the lens of the Monroe Doctrine, citing national security concerns and preventing Chinese influence in strategically important regions. Former CIA agent Mike Baker suggests that while an invasion of Greenland is unlikely, these developments are strengthening NATO's resolve to take greater responsibility for its own defence and strategic planning independent of US leadership.
