► Episode Notes:

What’s a Montessori bed? Find out on this week’s PlayingFTSE Show!

Steve W’s been on holiday this week, so this show was recorded on August 16th. Don’t worry, though, there’s still been plenty to talk about.

We’re sticking to the globetrotting theme for our quickfire round. Latin American StoneCo is on the list – Steve W made a mess of buying and selling it a few years ago, but how’s it doing now?

After that, we’re off to the Swiss Alps to talk about On Running, the US for an update on Deere, and Uruguay to find out about dLocal. But which, if any, have the Steves been buying recently?

Tencent is one of those stocks that people either love or hate, mostly depending on how they feel about investing in Chinese equities. But Steve D has been seeing promising signs from the company.

The latest update features decent growth and a widening moat. So the big question for investors is when the value equation becomes attractive enough to offset the obvious risk of the VIE structure.

Five Below is a stock that probably isn’t on the radar of most UK investors. But Steve W thinks it looks interesting after a big fall since the start of the year.

Things have started to look up just recently for the stock, though, so is it too late to buy? With the company exposed to under-pressure consumers in the US, the moment to strike might have passed.

As always, we’re interested in what’s been going on with Monday.com. And as always, it’s probably better and more interesting than the attention it gets.

It’s easy to see why Steve D likes it – the company is growing like a weed and the stock is close to its IPO price. Could that mean there’s an opportunity here with investors looking the other way?
