We're Making Changes! Plus Astrazeneca & Baltic Classified
Which hole has Steve D been shoving money down? Find out on this week’s PlayingFTSE Show!
The Steves are on a roll right now – both are ahead of the FTSE 100 and the S&P 500. And there’s one stock in particular that’s been doing it for both of them over the last seven days…
Greggs shares have had another appalling week, this time due to the weather being too hot. But does that change anything about what the Steves are planning on doing with the Britbox?
The FTSE 250 stock had been on the list to buy before the latest decline. But there’s also another new name that’s joining the ranks from Steve D…
In terms of European shares to buy there’s one big name that stands out. It’s LVMH which – as of last week – both Steves have ownership stakes in.
Making way is spirits company Pernod Ricard and GLP-1 firm Novo Nordisk. But Steve D has an eye on another name from a different sector to add to the portfolio…
AstraZeneca is the latest name rumoured to be leaving the FTSE 100 for the US. But Steve W isn’t buying it – the stock or the story.
Healthcare has been the worst-performing S&P 500 sector over the last 12 months. And with RFK Jr. as Health Minister, is that really where a pharmaceuticals firm wants to be?
Anyone wanting a house, cars, or basically anything in the Baltic region realistically only has one place to look. It’s Baltic Classifieds – which is obviously a member of the FTSE 250.
The company has a nice business model and a very strong market position. And with the stock down almost 10% in day, could it be one to consider buying?
