    Investment Mastermind Q4 2024

    Manish Kataria and Adam Lawrence join me once again for our quarterly investment mastermind where we discuss what we are investing in on the Financial Markets and why. If you have not listened to one of these episodes before the idea is we each pick a stock, Bond, ETF or investment that most people have the ability to buy and explain why we think it is a good pick. We then open it up for critique from the others. We should point out that although we do invest in these, this is in no way Financial Advice. We also discuss the wider markets and the factors that may affect future earnings. For this quarter Manish chose BLOK an ETF that invests in Transformational Data Sharing Technologies https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BLOK/?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAKfCtRCxJAg5gC4MeXtZFtEjw4297ANcxQoWndKd_TyUQLKIgfWgDZMvF3xwlpjtvr-Y-kvgFf25Mf4WTNx_mZNVSA-T8-XWVZg6KdAOR1K_qF74GJmJvi6DpHhhMR-CNzoVDH_A4XIwg0u-ND-JYtlAn6ichUJr527R_uDYHZIp Rod chose Ranmore Global Equity Fund, an actively managed Value fund. https://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/funds/snapshot/snapshot.aspx?id=F00000J58Q Adam chose WISE, a fintech company focused on Global money transfers https://www.google.com/search?q=wise+stock+price&oq=wise+stock&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0i131i433i512j0i512l4j69i60j69i61.4827j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 I would really appreciate it if you like, follow and leave us a review wherever you listen or watch the podcast.
