► Episode Notes:
Who’s come up with a hot new SAAS company? Find out on this week’s PlayingFTSE Podcast!
Steve and Steve are in this week to talk about the Budget, the Banks and some earnings from Adobe. But first, Steve W has made a blunder…
Last week, when we talked about Freetrade, the Oxford arm of the PlayingFTSE team got something very badly wrong. He’s here to put it right, but what did Steve W miss last week when we were looking at UK brokerages?
Just to keep things balanced, we’ve also got news from Trading212. The UK brokerage that both Steves have their ISAs with has come out with an offer that’s left them a bit disappointed – what’s been going on?
Meanwhile, there’s been a budget announcement in the UK. What does it mean for Steve and Steve? Not a lot, but that doesn’t stop them having some views on the subject that might surprise you…
After that, we can’t avoid the situation with the banks any more. SVB is a goner, but with other banks in the US and the UK falling too could this be a golden opportunity or are the risks just too great?
It’s not all about the US and the UK on this show, though. Where there’s a banking problem, there’s usually Credit Suisse – the perennial problem child of the investment banking sector – and this time’s no exception. But what’s Steve D seen here?
Lastly, we’ve got the earnings from Adobe to think about. Steve D thinks these were impressive, but the big question for us is always: is this stock a buy?
