Woolworths Group Discount Trial: Why Australia’s Grocery Price Fight Just Got Sharper

The Federal Court published new evidence in the ACCC’s case against Woolworths over its “Prices Dropped” campaign, alleging the retailer misled shoppers on 266 products by temporarily raising prices before advertising discounts. Woolworths denies wrongdoing, arguing its signage was accurate. The case file was updated April 24. Woolworths’ MILKRUN brand will give away 20,000 grocery items from April 29 to May 2.

  • How to Value Bank of Queensland (BOQ) Shares Using PE Ratio and Dividend Discount Model
    May 26, 2026, 5:29 PM EDT. Bank of Queensland (ASX: BOQ) shares trade around $6.27 amid strong investor interest in ASX bank stocks, which compose about one-third of the Australian market by capitalization. Two straightforward valuation approaches include the Price-Earnings (PE) ratio and the Dividend Discount Model (DDM). BOQ's PE ratio stands at 15.3x, below the banking sector average of 18x, suggesting potential undervaluation. The sector-adjusted PE valuation points to a share price near $7.44. The DDM uses consistent bank dividends, factoring in expected dividend growth and risk rate assumptions, offering a robust, alternative valuation method. Investors are advised to combine these methods for a balanced perspective on BOQ's value.
