Welcome to a new episode of A Matter of Interest podcast, your fortnightly reality check on global markets, hosted by Moneyfarm. Every two weeks, Richard Flax (our Chief Investment Officer) and Jack Amy (our Quantitative Trading Analyst) cut through the noise to serve up fresh market trends, data-driven insights, and strategic takeaways, minus the textbook jargon.
This week, we unpack a shifting market landscape driven by changing central bank playbooks and the rising cost of massive tech investments.
Specifically, we examine what the Federal Reserve’s shift away from forward guidance means for bond yields, why Big Tech’s record AI spending is raising tricky questions about actual returns, and what South Korea’s recent market turbulence reveals about the broader tech supply chain. Tune in as we make sense of it all.
