Centrelink update on little-known support for Aussies facing harrowing threat

Homelessness goes beyond sleeping rough on the street. It can also be staying in crisis accommodation, couch surfing, car camping and living in a severely overcrowded home. It's more common and more complex than many people realise. New data from Homelessness Australia found that between 2021-22 to 2023-24, there was a five per cent uptick in families with children turning to homelessness services for urgent help. Nominally, this reflected a 4654-person increase, with 92,476 people seeking help from services in that period, with the number of families already homeless at the time of seeking help increasing by 11 per cent. Whether you're experiencing homelessness now or are at risk of it, you don't have to go through it alone. RELATED Centrelink issues ATO tax refund warning: 'Repay it' St George Bank increases fee to deposit or withdraw cash by 200 per cent Gen Z with $100,000 in savings reveals 'common' money traps Aussies waste cash on Across the nation, community organisations are doing vital, frontline work of supporting people experiencing or at risk of homelessness. From general crisis and support services, mental health facilities, drug and alcohol services and domestic violence services – these groups are often the first point of contact when someone needs help. Services Australia is just one part of the broader system working to support people doing it tough. Jobseeker If you're aged between 22 and Age Pension age, and you're actively looking for work (unless you're sick or injured and can't do your usual work or study for a short time), you may be eligible for JobSeeker Payment. To qualify you must be an Australian resident, pass an income and assets test, be willing and able to work. As of 20 March, 2025 a single person with no children could receive up to $781.10 per fortnight. But the amount you get is going to depend on individual circumstances like whether you have a partner, children, and other sources of income. Rent Assistance The Rent Assistance payment can help with housing costs, even if you're not on a formal rental agreement. You might also be eligible if you're paying accommodation costs: To stay in a caravan park To moor a boat In a retirement village For crisis accommodation For a boarding house Rent Assistance is paid as a regular payment alongside your main payment. To qualify for this support, you must be receiving a payment from us, like JobSeeker, Youth Allowance, Age Pension, Disability Support Pension, Special Benefit, ABSTUDY Living Allowance or Parenting Payment. According to recent Australian Bureau of Statistics data, many of these Services Australia payments were reported as the main source of income for people who were experiencing homelessness. If you're unsure what you may be eligible for, you can use our Payment and Service Finder tool. Crisis Payment Crisis Payment is a one-off payment if you're in financial hardship, experienced an extreme circumstance and get a qualifying payment. There are different types of extreme circumstance. For example, you may be forced to leave your home due to a fire, flood or family and domestic violence. To find out if your situation is eligible, go to the Services Australia Crisis Payment page. Remember, you don't have to go it alone. Visit the Services Australia homelessness page to find support that works for you or someone you care about. Quiet ways Services Australia can help We know financial support is only one piece of the puzzle. That's why Services Australia specialist staff work in and alongside community organisations. Sometimes it's through regular visits to community services where we help people access payments and services. Sometimes, we work in organisations full-time to support people who might need more intensive support. For people experiencing homelessness, staying on payments like JobSeeker can be hard when daily survival takes priority. Missing reporting dates or not having phone or internet access can lead to their payment stopping. That's where our work with community organisations comes in. We can work with individuals to ensure they're getting the right support, not just any support. For example, if someone is dealing with a mental illness, disability or chronic conditions they may be eligible for other payments or support. But without assistance, many never apply, or don't know they can. If you need assistance now, our social workers can also help you with information, support and short-term counselling as well as referrals to other in to access your portfolio

Manchester United Locked In A Three-Way Battle For This Paris Saint-Germain Forward: Good Option For Amorim?

In a recent post on X, Foot Mercato journalist Santi Aouna mentioned that Manchester United are locked in a three-way battle for Paris Saint-Germain forward Randal Kolo Muani. It has been stated that the Red Devils are facing competition in the form of Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur in the race to land the French striker this summer. Kolo Muani's Impressive Loan Spell In Italian Football Kolo Muani had a solid loan spell at Juventus last season when he put in a series of impressive displays for them in the final third. The 26-year-old scored ten goals and picked up three assists in 22 matches for the Turin club in the previous campaign across all competitions. The France international led the line well for Juve up top as he averaged 1.94 shots per 90 minutes in Serie A football. He kept 52% of his attempts on target. Kolo Munai was a bit untidy when distributing the ball in the final third after making only 69.9% of his attempted passes in the top tier of Italian football (stats via His current contract at the Ligue 1 club will expire in the summer of 2028. Thus, Man United have got no choice but to meet the French club's demands if they want to sign Kolo Muani this off-season. STUTTGART, GERMANY – JUNE 08: Randal Kolo Muani of France controls the ball during the UEFA Nations League 2025 third place match between Germany and France at Stuttgart Arena on June 08, 2025 in Stuttgart, Germany. (Photo by) Is Kolo Muani A Good Option For Manchester United Boss Ruben Amorim? Kolo Muani is proficient at finding a yard of space for himself to get some strikes in at goal. He can be a decent finisher in the final third when he is playing with confidence on the field. The French striker can even create the odd chance for others around him in and around the opponent's penalty area. However, he might need some time to adjust to life in the Premier League if the Red Devils can find a way to win the race for his services. Kolo Muani would bring more goals and depth to Man United boss Ruben Amorim's frontline. He has what it takes to fight for regular first-team football at Old Trafford. At 26, Kolo Muani has his peak years ahead of him, which makes him a great choice for the Mancunian club to consider in this transfer window. He might even help the Mancunian club get back to challenging for a European spot in the Premier League next season.

Steel Dynamics, Inc. (STLD): A Bull Case Theory

We came across a bullish thesis on Steel Dynamics, Inc. on Stock Picker's Journey's Substack by Gregg Jahnke. In this article, we will summarize the bulls' thesis on STLD. Steel Dynamics, Inc. 's share was trading at $127.56 as of July 31st. STLD's trailing and forward P/E were 18.51 and 14.29 respectively according to Yahoo Finance. Steel Dynamics (STLD) has been added to the Model 25 portfolio at $131, replacing AES, in a rare top-down decision driven by macroeconomic expectations rather than valuation. While the author typically favors bottom-up stock picks like Pepsi and Gentex, which were purchased at near-decade lows, the potential passage of the BBBill and a possible economic surge in 2026 prompted this more thematic move. STLD stands to benefit from pro-growth industrial policies, and with momentum shifting in favor of the bill's passage, exposure to a high-quality cyclical stock became desirable. A standout first-quarter earnings call reinforced conviction, as STLD's aggressive capital expenditure plans—particularly its efforts to reshape the aluminum industry—signal long-term vision. Notably, the company has repurchased 40% of its stock over the past decade and maintains a clean balance sheet, having recently refinanced debt with manageable near-term maturities. Although other aluminum plays like Century, Alcoa, and Kaiser were considered, STLD was viewed as superior, even compared to Nucor (NUE), due to its aluminum exposure. Wall Street's focus on short-term earnings has led to a misunderstanding of STLD's strategic positioning, as highlighted by analyst John Tumazos's incisive questioning on the Q1 call. The company's spread-based model in scrap steel and aluminum is seen as lower risk than perceived, with significant upside potential. Strong institutional support from Victory Capital, Norges Bank, and T. Rowe Price adds credibility to the investment. Though STLD has underperformed recently and issued a soft Q2 outlook, the long-term case for its role in rebuilding U.S. manufacturing justifies the timing of this buy. Previously, we covered a on Steel Dynamics, Inc. (STLD) by Gregg Jahnke in February 2025, which highlighted the company's capital discipline, low-cost structure, and long-term potential. The company's stock price has depreciated approximately by 4% since our coverage due to near-term macro headwinds. Gregg Jahnke shares a similar view but emphasizes a top-down, policy-driven case based on expected 2026 growth. Steel Dynamics, Inc. is not on our list of the 30 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. As per our database, 45 hedge fund portfolios held STLD at the end of the first quarter which was 45 in the previous quarter. While we acknowledge the potential of STLD as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.
