You Asked! We Covered! Reckitt, Pets at Home, Natwest and Kraft-Heinz!

1 hour 10 minutes

► Episode Notes:

What have YOU – the PlayingFTSE audience – been wanting to know? Find out on this week’s PlayingFTSE Show!

This week, Steve and Steve are tackling the questions that our listeners have been sending in. We’ve got views on stocks, stocks, and more stocks.

First, though, it’s consumption. Both Steves have been looking to try and expand their horizons with some podcasts they disagree with, but what have they been learning from Scott Galloway and Steven Bartlett?

Next up is Reckitt Benckiser – another company that once had something or other loosely to do with Hull. But is that enough to cause either Steve to want to buy the stock at today’s prices?

After that, Steve W has the latest from Kraft Heinz. The company has been finding out the limits of how far it can push prices to fend off inflation, but how concerned should investors be about anti-obesity drugs in the pipeline?

Pets at Home is a UK stock that we haven’t looked at before. But we’re glad to have it on our radar, because it looks like a really interesting company in a strongly defensive sector.

Last is NatWest. As the UK government prepares to dump its stake in the business, should either Steve be interested in the bank that’s been making Nigel Farage grumpy this year?

Only on this week’s PlayingFTSE Podcast!
