Trying to unpick some pretty extraordinary moves in global indices, the team discuss what’s been going on. Was it simply a short-term market overreaction, or something that we might be dealing with for a little while longer? They then move on to automotive parts – a blast from the past for manager David Coombs, but a new addition to the funds. They explain why they like the sector now, and what led them to add O’Reilly and LKQ to the funds. Finally, the team review American Tower, which has benefited from the growing expectation of imminent interest rate cuts in the US as well as the growing demand for wireless infrastructure.

On the eve of the most telegraphed election result in UK history, the team turns instead to a murkier electoral outlook in Europe. How will a shifting European political landscape – especially in France – impact the region’s economy? And what would the knock-on effects influence the European Central Bank from here? They then discuss the consumer as questions abound on the true condition of household spending, given some weaker reports from some company management, particularly in the US. Is this just some belt tightening or something more worrisome? Finally, in a world of swift tech and AI development, demand for business consultancy firm Accenture has increased, helping businesses deliver some of the benefits presented by the whirlwind of technological advances. The team explain what makes them long-time holders.

Inflation is on our agenda but not quite in the way you might expect. We discuss the outlook for inflation in the longer term and consider how some big structural changes could shift perceptions on what’s a ‘normal’ rate of inflation. Attention then turns to the tech sector and software in particular. Despite all the plaudits for the tech darlings, could we be seeing the first signs of a software slowdown? Finally, all creatures great and small are on the team’s collective minds as they discuss animal health business Idexx Laboratories and the way its products and services are vital in helping all our furry friends.

In an election extravaganza of a year the team discuss how they will navigate the many political changes which may be ahead, particularly in the UK where a change in the occupancy of Number 10 seems highly likely. Diversification is the goal of any multi-asset manager, but just how do you achieve it and how has a world of higher interest rates changed that? The team outline the latest on this all-important topic. Finally, could the road ahead be brightening for UK medical equipment company and long-time portfolio holding Smith & Nephew?

With plenty of debate about the state of the US economy, whether the inflation dragon is slain or not, if the landing will be a soft one, and when the Fed might start cutting rates, the team discuss whether the US economic porridge is too hot, too cold or just right. The US consumer is next on the menu as some recent weakness in areas of consumer spending has the team pondering if these shifts in how hard-earned cash is being spent are cyclical or longer-term in nature. Finally, the team turn to Sony, of PlayStation and Walkman fame, to discuss why the business is more than just its well-known electronics and what has made the company an interesting investment for the funds.

While the US economy and markets seemingly look in a pretty good place right now, the team discuss one of the potential flies in the ointment: US commercial real estate. Many worries have been floated about large cuts to office property values – are they valid? And if so what second order impacts could there be? The focus then turns eastward to the rise of Japan’s stock market and increased investor interest. This leads the team to discuss whether years of corporate reform could mean a new dawn for the nation or just another false one. Finally, the Magnificent Seven is tackled head on as the team discuss Nvidia, the darling of the market, to highlight what the company does, how it has changed, and why it has earned plaudits and a stratospheric share price rise.

The Magnificent Seven was the buzz phrase of 2023 as seven stocks drove so much of the return from US equity markets. America isn't the only place with a concentration issue though: it’s the same picture in Europe and the UK. The team look forward and discuss what risks and opportunities may lie ahead as a result of this phenomenon. They then turn to the defence sector and why there might be some meaningful changes afoot to drive more government spending in this area. Finally, Canadian e-commerce company Shopify is on the agenda as the team outline the company's broad appeal, along with the ups and downs of their journey owning this name.

After the roller coaster that was 2023, the team discuss getting their bearings for the year ahead. Then, speaking of creaking behemoth structures in need of investment, they explain why they’ve been buying general infrastructure funds for the first time ever. Finally, a new portfolio holding is German medtech company Carl Zeiss, which specialises in cutting-edge tools for eye health. Perhaps some of Carl Zeiss’ products may help us all better see what the year ahead might hold…

It’s that time of year again where the whole Sharpe End team get together for the Christmas Special and become David’s judge and jury on the predictions he made for 2023 at the end of last year. Did David’s crystal ball serve him well in calling what happens to the bond markets, commodity markets, equity markets, and a few more random areas too!? Last year David managed 5.5 points, an advance on the 4.5 points of the year previous. Will his march toward prediction perfection continue, or will it all come crashing down to reality with a bump?

Is US President Joe Biden’s huge infrastructure stimulus bending the US Treasury yield curve more than Beckham at the dead ball? Moderating inflation hasn’t stopped long-term US Treasury bond yields from whipping higher (and therefore prices falling sharply) in the past couple of months – could it be worries around government spending and the much larger amount of bonds being sold at auction? Meanwhile, earnings season has dominated stock markets recently, so the team discuss the winners and losers this time round and why. Lastly, they share why US landfill and recycling business Waste Management is more exciting than you may first think.

The team discuss the very different approaches to government investment in the US and UK and how this impacts the relative attractiveness of those economies. Next-generation weight loss drugs have grabbed the headlines of late, but unpicking the long-term impacts of these treatments on businesses is fraught with difficulty. Then, in the interests of balance, the team turn to alcohol and burgers as they discuss their recent switch from drinks giant Diageo to fast-food behemoth McDonalds.

The team cast their minds back to the days before we knew what COVID was and when inflation was considered conquered to review an investment report they published in 2019 called Ditch the Models. Which of these models the team suggested ditching panned out the way they expected? And are there any others that could do with being ditched today? The swiftly growing animal health sector is the final topic as the team discuss how to avoid the dogs in the space and hopefully end up as the cats who got the cream.

This month, David, Will, and Craig ask whether investors are getting too excited about dubious subscription business models, and whether investors are looking critically enough at these ‘flywheels’ of growth.
