Annual ETF Rundown and Market Trends

We begin with Alex Newman, who covers the recent results from an early-stage solid state battery technology company Ilika (IKA). It focuses on batteries for the ‘internet of things’, metech and EVs, and shares have run up recently. Alex reveals what there is for investors to get excited about and what to be wary of.

We move on to last week’s annual Top 50 ETFs special report. Dave Baxter has refreshed the IC’s best-buy list to provide readers and listeners with new ways to build the best portfolio while keeping an eye on costs. Listen to find out what made the list, what’s been dropped and the challenges facing investors.

Last up, results from Trifast (TRI), a fastener supplier, which is trying to bounce back from a difficult period. Christopher Akers unpacks what held the company back in recent years, how tariffs are impacting the business and the ways it’s looking to become “more dynamic”.
