2025 The commentator on Radio Five Live Extra described United’s performance last night as “ordinary at best” and you’d have to say – as we limped to victory against a team with far fewer resources (and one less player) – that it was an apt description. Similar could be said for today’s trading session (Stoxx […]
2025 February 15th is arguably a day for the more – ahem – seasoned romantic. No married man in his right mind buys a dozen overpriced red roses on Valentine’s Day itself. You might as well accompany it with the news that you’re having a fling with Debbie in accounts. Go home tonight with a […]
2025 In perhaps the least surprising news of the year a recent study has revealed that nearly two thirds of British adults gained weight during the pandemic and the majority have yet to shed those “lockdown pounds”. In total, 61% of people admitted they had put on weight and of those, 89% said they had […]
2025 A good day for a good lunch. Not that I had one but I did cover for others while they did. Lunches are back aren’t they. Sad cheese toastie begone. Let’s have a catch up. IRL. Zoom can go in the bin. Hit me with a Sweetings or a Boltons or any of the […]
2025 One of those days where a quick look at markets (Stoxx 600 +0.01%) would give you zero sense of the moves going on beneath the surface. Also one of those days where I get reminded of just how little I know. There are so many inputs into this market right now that it is […]
2025 A fairly dull day unless you were the UK based winner of the £110m Euromillions jackpot on Friday and were picking up your cheque today. I did have the brief euphoria of a “You have some exciting news” email on Saturday morning before logging in to find I’d won £3.20. Surely that should be […]
2025 So there is a key debate in the market right now and you have to have a view. Is the Chicken BigMac a delicious 544 kcal addition to the menu or a blight on humanity. Answers on a postcard please. While that rages lets focus some of the other key questions on investors minds […]
2025 Just like a Vegas cab driver we have a few people here at Redburn who have second lives that are possibly marginally more interesting than the day job. Our (awesome) Head of Reception knocks out a handy Barbara Streisand tune while our up-and-coming Travel & Leisure analyst moonlights as lead singer in a band […]
2025 An eye catching arrival on the list that our Charts team publish every day as up-and-coming investor Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway eases into the 12 mth relative highs slot. This is Warren’s market isn’t it? Value to the fore. Fear everywhere. Newfangled, loss making technology tumbling. He’s up there with Michael O’Leary for memorable […]
2025 So. Are you DWTK enough to know what WAGMI means? One of my cooler friends left what he now dismissively calls TradFi to go into the crypto world and he has been signing his emails off like that. WAGMI is what the crypto bros say to each other to reassure themselves that they’re doing […]
