For investment professionals only

In our latest quarterly podcast, Walter Scott's Directors Charlie Macquaker and Roy Leckie discuss the remarkable performance of equity markets in 2023. They also reflect on some of the year’s research trips, including Charlie’s recent visit to Japan, and ask if the outperformance of the Magnificent Seven has been justified by fundamentals, and if it can continue.

The podcast is intended for investment professionals only and should not be construed as investment advice or a recommendation. Any stock examples discussed are given in the context of the theme being explored, and the views expressed are those of the presenters at the time of the recording.
