About this episode
Merryn Somerset Webb and John Stepek discuss recent market events including a gold rally and the implications of AI on the financial landscape.
It's been a tumultuous few weeks for markets, and yet nothing much has changed. Join Merryn Somerset Webb and John Stepek as they discuss why an AI hedge fund implosion and US intervention in the Japanese yen appear to have merely strengthened market optimism. Meanwhile, the FTSE 250 has hit a new record high, even as the underlying need for practical policy help to save the UK market from extinction becomes ever more urgent.
