Playing FTSE

Google & Meta Report + Investing in the NHS & Harry Potter!?

► Episode Notes:


This week, our show is a pretty straightforward one. We’re looking at earnings from the big digital advertising players in the US and answering some questions from our viewers about UK stocks.

But first, we’re having a list of our wins and losses from the last few weeks. Highlights include the FED’s interest rate decision, the fourth Ashes Test, and Forterra’s dividend announcement.

After that, it’s on to Alphabet, which put up some earnings numbers that the market liked. But what do the Steves make of the decision to add to Ruth Porat’s already busy schedule?

Then it’s the obvious successor – Meta Platforms. The worst appears to be well and truly behind this stock after another good report, but Steve W thinks there’s an elephant in the room.

One of our viewers asked whether we’re buying BMY any more (after a range of merchandise, you’d think we might). Well, Steve D is, but not in the way you might be thinking…

Lastly, Steve W’s been looking at Primary Health Properties, after one of our viewers asked for our thoughts. The market doesn’t like this business, but what exactly is the problem?

Only on this week’s PlayingFTSE Show!
