Why has Paul been selling his stocks in a bear market? Find out on this week’s PlayingFTSE Podcast!
Following on from last week’s portfolio update from Steve and Steve, Paul is here with one of his very own. Half of it isn’t there any more. But why has he been selling? And do the Steves approve? Paul’s here to tell us everything.
The US Fed is hiking interest rates to tackle inflation. Cathie Wood thinks this is a bad idea. ARKK has had a rotten year and it’s crushed the ETF’s total return over the last five years. Is she talking her own book, or does she have a point?

Lastly, we’re looking at inflation and the macroeconomic news.
