Investors are facing a new set of financial market conditions. It’s being referred to as the The 3D Reset. Decarbonisation, deglobalisation and demographics will likely lead to higher inflation for longer, more active fiscal policy, a new world order challenging globalisation, a faster response to climate change and labour shortages driving technology investment.

In brief, investors are being asked to consider what they've done for the last ten years and think about doing the opposite.

In this podcast John Mensack chats with fund managers Jim Luke and Malcolm Melville about the impact on commodities of the 3D reset.

RUNNING ORDER:

02:11 - Part one: dealing with waves of inflation

15:12 - Part two: the rise and fall of the petrodollar

Adam Couch, the CEO of food producer Cranswick, joins the pod. You may not have heard of the name but you will have certainly consumed some of Cranswick's products, particularly if you are a fan of sausages.

£10,000 invested in Cranswick in 1991 (when Adam joined the business) is worth over £2.3m today (with dividends reinvested), more than a 200x return. Cranswick has achieved this while operating in a competitive industry not known for delivering strong financial returns. So we wanted to know the secret sauce that makes Cranswick such a UK success story.

Recession is a word that seems to have fallen off the radar of some investors in recent months, having been a hot topic last year. However, it’s back, with inflation stubbornly high and central banks still raising interest rates.

RUNNING ORDER:

02:43 - Part one: Rule 1 - safety first but don’t miss the re-rating in the market

11:29 - Part two: Rule 2 - not all equities perform equally in a recession

15:40 - Part three: Rule 3 - don’t forget commodities and this time be mindful of China’s reopening
