In today’s Podcast, the Sharesify team talk US tech, chips, housebuilders, cruising, M&A, big oil and beauty tips.
Steven discusses the role tech is playing in driving US indices higher, while Ian opines on Standard Life’s (SDLF) acquisition of Aegon UK. This deal will create the UK’s second-biggest player in both workplace pensions and retail pensions and savings.
Ian is surprised by the market’s lukewarm reaction to the latest update from housebuilder Barratt Redrow (BTRW). He also highlights JPMorgan Chase’s (JPM) massive trading gains and discusses the cautionary comments from CEO Jamie Dimon.
James talks about Saga (SAGA), the over-50s products company looking ship-shape and confident of growing pre-tax profits to ‘at least’ £100 million by 2030.
He also discusses the tasty growth opportunity at restaurants group Bow Street (BOW). Named after the street in Covent Garden upon which the Royal Opera House sits, this AIM tiddler’s special ingredient is the leadership of proven entrepreneur David Page.
