Why is this stock market so shit?
>dominated by mining companies that arent even at ATH despite record sales
>biggest tech company in the country isnt even listed on the ASX
>no company can sustain a rally for more than 2 days before a big pull back (then crabbing)
>the only companies you can make money with are mining or bio tech companies, all basically just huge gambles (exploration for mining, new products from biotech companies)
>insane capital gains tax
>brokers all have insane commissions
>only thing that was worthwhile was 500x leverage on cfds, but government removing that in march

Ausfags, what broker do you use to trade US stocks? Everything I've found is leveraged cfds / based in israel / or commsec with retarded fees.
