At any given point in the market cycle, there are certain sectors and themes where investors go hunting for growth. Sometimes it’s driven by disruption. Sometimes it’s recovery. And sometimes it’s simply because the market has become too pessimistic about quality businesses with long runways ahead of them. Right now, a few pockets of the ASX are attracting attention. Fintech and financial infrastructure businesses are trying to prove they can scale profitably. Software and SaaS names are attempting to emerge from one of the sharpest valuation resets in recent memory. And in healthcare and medtech, investors are once again searching for companies capable of delivering structural growth in an uncertain economic environment. In this episode Livewire’s Chris Conway is joined by Oscar Oberg from Wilson Asset Management and Alex Shevelev from Forager Funds Management to run the ruler over some of the stocks and sectors they believe could be poised for growth. From beaten-up software names to healthcare innovators and financial infrastructure plays, this episode is packed with ideas for investors. This episode was filmed on Wednesday, 20th May 2026.
