On today's Wrap: the value of the pound rose sharply after Theresa May announced she wants to hold an early general election while the FTSE has suffered its worst day of trade in three months; Weetabix is being sold to US company Post Holdings for £1.4 billion; the number of shoppers visiting the high street grew at its fastest rate for three years in March

Market Wrap: Pound jumps, FTSE drops on snap election

Simon Rose kicks back and takes a broader look at the world of money and work. Every evening at 5 pm Simon and a studio guest dissect the winners and losers of the market day – and if you miss the show it’s repeated at 8 pm. He is often joined by Share Radio Senior Analyst Ed Bowsher, and together they will make you laugh and think about where to wisely invest your money.
Simon loves films, politics, markets, technology and investing – so expect interviews and shows which reflect his interests, and the most wonderful guests from which he will tease gripping stories and interesting facts. For example, The Share Radio Travel Guide is hilarious as Simon is not much of a traveller and is proud never to have been to Paris, and he co-presents with a travel journalist who is permanently on the move.
The Share Radio Evening Show is talk radio at its best.
