Freelancer Limited (ASX:FLN) shares have retraced a considerable 27% in the last month, reversing a fair amount of their solid recent performance. Looking back over the past twelve months the stock has been a solid performer regardless, with a gain of 22%. Although its price has dipped substantially, given close to half the companies operating in Australia’s Professional Services industry have price-to-sales ratios (or “P/S”) below 1.4x, you may still consider Freelancer as a stock to potentially avoid with its 1.9x P/S ratio.

According to a recent report in Futurism, businesses across sectors like content creation, graphic design, and software development are turning to human experts to rectify sloppy AI-generated work, effectively creating a new niche market for “AI fixers.” The phenomenon stems from the…

“People will always have children.” This is supposedly what Chancellor Konrad Adenauer said — himself a father of seven — in 1955, when the question arose as to which pension system the still young Federal Republic should adopt. Under Adenauer’s leadership, it was decided that Germany would adopt a generational contract: The working population would finance pensioners by paying a percentage of their salaries. But the system could only work if the birth rate remained high and life expectancy low. In 1955, statistically speaking, every woman gave birth to 2.3 children, and the trend was rising.
