@sturdyalex.bsky.social as requested by @pimlicat.bsky.social call to action.

Well I think you may have your first topic. Navigating tariffs and geopolitics as an investor. Wonder what the world has instore for us next 😬

I think companies and how they tie into trends in the world and in the UK. Your take on UK economic policy and what it means for investors would be interesting too.

January 2026 Musings First off let me be wish you a very Happy New Year, and hopefully you are well rested after the festive break if a little bit sad like me when looking at the scales.  So now that the last of t…

November Blog post! Where I look back at October in the US and UK and try to muddle my way though macro and markets.

Did a bit more reading, Narative andNumbers by @aswathdamodaran.bsky.social is an excellent guide to bridging valuation to the story that could drive a stock. Who Will Defend Europe by @keirgiles.bsky.social is a sober take on the parlous state of European defence. All books were excellent reads.

Spooky Season Macro Update 2025 Photo by freestocks on Unsplash Velcome! Sorry about the lack of posts I’ve had a busy Summer, a combination of relaxing and catching up on reading.  So I thought I would catch you up on my key hig…

Got a bit more reading done. Crashed by @adamtooze.bsky.social excellent, published in 2018 still feels relevant and shows how long the shadow of the 2008 crash looms. The War for Ukraine by @warinthefuture.bsky.social another excellent read to understand strategies and adaptations on both sides.

YouTube video by Conkers Corner INVESTING STRATEGIES FOR WINNING IN ANY MARKET: Recorded LIVE at the inaugural 2025 INVESTOR SUMMIT

Another excellent podcast by @conkers3.bsky.social and @htviolaheir.bsky.social. showing that we do actually have quality companies in the UK! Oh, and for some reason I was let on the stage.

Quality content from Peter and Henry as always!

It was definitely an unexpected highlight of the day for me. I'm just not sure who was more shocked @htviolaheir.bsky.social or me that this happened. @conkers3.bsky.social is an agent of chaos.

Bit more reading done this month. I can highly recommend The Great Crash, is a good starting point if your interested in economic history.

Currently reading Mick Ryan's The War for Ukraine, if your interested in defence stocks this is good research material.

Got a bit more reading done. All very good reads.

June Macro Update
This month I look back at the Geopolitical effects of the events in the middle east, and the June data for the US economy and markets, and the UK economy and Markets.

I wonder if there is a strategic redeployment of money by some of the big players, with some of that landing in the FTSE? As the US TINA narrative seems to be breaking down.

I have to admit I did find myself bristling at Ian and Tim whilst listening to this week. Their view of having already had this debate I find very annoying. I have a lot of coworkers in their 20s who have never had their say. The '16 voters seem to be held as sacred, even by the pro eu journos.

Bit of a slower reading month, but some excellent content. Security Analysis is really worth the hype, but take your time with it. It really does rewire your brain. Manias, Panics and Crashes is a tour de force in economic history, understanding cycles and capital flows.

I'm so sorry @sturdyalex.bsky.social & @pimlicat.bsky.social that you were on the receiving end of attacks over your Wednesday episode. I know it's not much but I have contacted my Labour MP with your key talking points.

We keep paying for her madness. And never forget this from Nigel Farage his reaction to the Liz Truss mini budget, he has since deleted the tweet.
