Predicting 2026: Will the Magnificent 7 tech stocks continue to diverge?

Financial Times columnist Gillian Tett predicted that the Magnificent 7 tech stocks were not going to fall, but they wouldn’t ride a lot higher either in 2025. What actually happened was a bit of a mixed bag, and Gillian says that sets these companies up for diverging paths in 2026. The era of an artificial intelligence tide lifting all boats seems to be drawing to an end.

Predicting 2026: Will Ukraine finally get a peace deal?

The FT’s Europe editor Ben Hall thought there would be a Ukraine peace deal in 2025. Despite lots of back and forth over ceasefire proposals, an agreement has yet to materialise.

The Rachman Review: Europe’s triple shock: Putin, Trump and Xi

The French pioneer of European integration Jean Monnet believed that Europe would be ‘built in crisis’. The war in Ukraine is putting this theory to the test, once again. Gideon discusses with historian Timothy Garton Ash how European leaders are responding to this latest crisis after the brief ‘holiday from history’ that followed the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Behind the Money: KKR, Bain and private equity’s push into Japan

When international private equity groups first entered Japan at the turn of the 21st century, newspapers criticised them as vulture funds and politicians steered clear of public contact. Today, it’s a different story. Dozens of buyout groups have set up in the country and the establishment is courting them. The FT’s Tokyo correspondent David Keohane and Tokyo bureau chief Leo Lewis explain why there’s been a shift, and how private equity’s presence may rejuvenate Japanese corporates. Clips from Toho The FT does not use generative AI to voice its podcasts. This is a repeat of an episode published on Behind The Money, a sister podcast of FT News Briefing, on November 26, 2025.

Political Fix: Labour's year in review

This is an episode of Political Fix, the FT weekly podcast that takes you into the corridors of Westminster to unwrap, analyse and debate British politics with a regular panel of FT correspondents. It’s been another turbulent year in UK politics. Prime Minister Keir Starmer has faced down rebellions from within his own party, overseen scandals and sackings, and delivered a constant barrage of bad news from health and housing to small boats and the Budget. He’s fared a little better on the world stage – with successful state visits, securing a comparatively competitive trade deal with Trump, as well as a tentative rapprochement with Europe. But with every international success, Starmer’s standing domestically seems to diminish: he ends the year, on some measures, as the most unpopular PM ever. In this special live episode of Political Fix, host George Parker is joined by Anna Gross, Stephen Bush and Chris Giles to analyse how the Labour party got here – and where it goes next. This is a repeat of an episode published on Political Fix, a sister podcast of FT News Briefing, on December 12, 2025 To listen and subscribe to more episodes, find Political Fix on your favourite platform by clicking here!

A great daily financial news podcast

27-05-2022

Niels1982Amsterdam

The FT has found a perfect balance between explaining the daily financial news and in depth financial market stories in a snackable and easy-to -consume basis. The genial host Marc Filippino is likable and is very well suited as the voice of the public by asking the right questions, without coming off as cocky or all knowing.
