Jeremy and Gareth talk this week about Trump 2.0 launching with a number of "adults in the room" who Trump trusts, and who can get things done.
One thing that might get done is a US/UK trade deal...Jeremy describes how the stars could align, and how the UK's separation from Europe might save us from the worst of Trump's tariffs.
Absent much other UK stock news, Jeremy talks about LSEG, whose results demonstrate just how small the London Stock Exchange actually is, relative to the rest of the group's business. This leads to discussion of the US, where the OTC is generating real interest, and Singapore, where the authorities are actively promoting local investment and local listings.
Next week is jobs week in the USA...fingers crossed that all is well.
