This is The Motley Fool Australia's report shortened to its most important sentences, in plainer words, with

that carry a fact, such as "former" or "federal". The reporting, the facts and the quotations
are theirs — quotations are never edited — and the indicators beside it measure
this version. Hover or tap Adjectives to see every one left in the text.
