Just Williams - Episode 103

Coming hot off the heels of the longest ever episode of the Just Williams podcast, we have another edition jam-packed with analysis of what is going on in global economic and political news.We begin with an example of the volatility of AI Bubble, and how this might indicate the possible bottom of the economic cycle. Alongside this we have more sign that the FTSE continues to decline, with Astra Zeneca the latest company possibly looking for a route out.From a UK perspective the Budget Date has been announced, which means we are going to find out how Mr Burnham & Mr Healey are going to fund their policy aspirations, could this mean a raid on Pension Tax Relief?

Just Williams - Episode 101

Now we don't won't you to go thinking that there will be anything in the least bit anti-climatic about the latest episode of the Just Williams podcast, or that it is somehow in the shadow of it's centennial sibling.Clearly we partied hard for the 100th, but once we had got that out of our system we were back at it working on 101. So strap in for an update on the AI bubble, what Donald Trump has been investing in and what Andy Burnham (and his sidekick Andy Haldane) might mean for your taxes and your savings.There is some talk about who the next Chancellor might be, the rising price of petrol (and quite a lot of other stuff) in Russia, and how the midterms might shakedown in the U.S

Just Williams - Episode 100

So this is a thing then.What started out as something that felt a little bit quirky way back in April 2021, has now developed into a thing that we are really quite proud of.In the last four years we have gone from sort of monthly, to a regular bi-weekly schedule and you have got to know quite a few of the Williams Investment family. We have talked you through a whole heap of global events, and a fair bit of change in the financial markets and we like to think we have educated and entertained, even if only a little.But that's enough looking back, we have a 100th episode to share; and it's as choc-full of all of the good stuff that you have come to expect. So sit back with Duncan, John & David and if you feel like raising your mid-morning brew to us, we would be happy to join you in an anniversary toast.

Nothing livens up a Tuesday morning like a new episode of the Just Williams podcast, even more so when it marks the return of regular Duncan Williams to the hosting hot seat.David Scott is on hand to provide the analysis as the pair dive into the latest global economic and political developments that are likely to impact the investment sector.First up is an update on the situation in the Middle East, and the slightly curious reaction of parts of the Bond Market before attention is turned to the possibility of an inflationary spike, and what that means for economic growth across Europe.The recent developments with SpaceX and the Nasdaq kick-off a conversation about tech stocks in general, and the merits and dangers of getting swept along in high-profile share issues.Finally, following the annual update from the UK Pensions Body, a discussion around what a comfortable pension will look like in the future, and the consideration that needs to be made around the growing costs of social care.

Just Williams - Episode 98

And there is a lot to get through, starting with the latest UK inflation figures and how they are being interpreted by the Bond Markets, and an update on the situation in Iran and whether we are inching closer to some sort of resolution.There is chance to talk through what is going on with Space X, and what it might mean if the ‘Magnificent Seven’ become the ‘Even More Magnificent Eight’. Finally the likely fallout, both political and fiscal of the appointment of Kevin Warsh as the new Chair of The Federal Reserve.

Just Williams - Episode 97

It’s a bit of an epic pod this time around, both in terms of the scope of the subject matter and the breadth of the discussion. Valerie Wade is on hosting duties, with John Newsome and David Scott providing the analysis and opinion.The starting point is the recent Local Elections in the UK, and what the catastrophic results might mean for the future of the Labour leadership, and by default the make-up and direction of the Government. From there attention turns to the ongoing situation in the Middle-East (and the impact on global fuel supplies) and whether there is any end in sight, the latest economic data coming out of China and the role that the Donald Trump and the U.S is having on all of it.
