Whilst there are many factors behind the decline in social mobility in the UK, it is hard to ignore the role house prices play (London is at 8 times average wages according to Nationwide, so no wonder the ability of parents to help is so key to many purchasers). Whilst none of us like excessive building, we may have to accept some uncomfortable trade-offs if we are to fix the problem, as no society benefits when people feel that they have no way forward, or, more importantly, upwards.

A very disappointing turn of events for a deal that would have been groundbreaking. It is hard not to feel that the line between persuading others to your point of view and bullying them into going along with it has been crossed for good.

President Trump intervened in the talks calling the deal a "green scam".

Yesterday, US inflation was up. Today, job creation is well down, but wage growth up, and unemployment rate up, but not by that much (yet?). With such a mixed picture, the biggest takeaway seems to be the huge downward revisions of the data from May and June, down by a combined 258,000 jobs. For investors, it is always hard to position on mixed data, but especially so when the data could be miles out. At least the UK’s Office of National Statistics can show that they are not alone in having such issues. 😉

Nonfarm payrolls were expected to increase by 100,000 in July, according to the Dow Jones consensus estimate.

We posted just after the announcement that it would be interesting to see the calculations for tariffs that Trump claimed included “currency manipulation” and “non-tariff barriers”. Turns out that the formula was a lot less complex! This is why we do not try to position around such nonsense. 🫣

Analysts have questioned claims that new tariffs are reciprocal and based on those charged against the US.

According to President Trump, the tariff rates for each country take into account not only the actual tariff charged but “currency manipulation” and “non-tariff barriers”. We would love to see those workings, as we suspect that they are somewhat contentious!

The US president reveals a "baseline" 10% tariff on all imports into the US on a day he dubs "liberation day"

We have called out bad business practices before (ticket touts, anyone?), and here is the latest one, with quite mind bending numbers. Bearing in mind that we all pay higher premiums as a result, the government needs to step in asap.

A judge again raises concerns about the credit hire industry after hearing another high-value claim.

We have avoided investment in oil and gas majors in our sustainable portfolios as we had concerns about how committed they were to the energy transition. Even so, it is very disappointing to see such announcements (and BP are not alone). It does highlight the importance of ‘intentionality’ when vetting companies, and the risks of investing in ‘improvers’.

The energy giant has announced its strategy after rivals also rowed back on green energy plans.

So days after JD Vance berated European leaders for not protecting free speech, the 'First Buddy' promises to stop anyone on X from disagreeing with the official line, regardless of how ludicrously false it is. I am not sure that 'ironic' quite covers it when where this is clearly going is so concerning. Anyone up for a Global ex-US portfolio on the grounds of excess political risk? If it were any other country, we would probably be talking about it!!

Elon Musk has vowed to crack down on X users who have tried to correct false claims by Donald Trump that Volodymyr Zelensky’s approval ratings have collapsed. The billionaire said he planned to “fix” the social network’s system of community notes, which allows users to label fake news and ad...

So VAT is discriminatory against the US because the rate is higher than the sales taxes applied in the US, even though both are applied to all goods (domestic or foreign). As with many recent prouncements, people are wondering if Trump does not understand why this is daft, or just does not care. Our view: don’t spend time trying to work it out, as either way he is going to do what he is going to do.

The surprise inclusion of VAT to calculate tariffs prompts questions over the possible impact on British businesses.

To politicians around the world who seem to have lost direction, of all leanings, this is what ‘owning it’ looks like. Alongside Adam Kinzinger, the former Republican Senator who said he did now want Biden’s protective pardon for his actions investigating 6 January, there is hope that some people see the horrible danger that comes with this nonsense.

Former "Maga granny" Pamela Hemphill tells the BBC the Trump government is trying to "rewrite history".

So the President-elect of the US will not rule out using military power to take territory from a NATO ally. The fact that this is not even the lead story in some media outlets speaks to how immune we have become to outrageous statements from Donald Trump. That feels like a very dangerous place to be.

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump refused on Tuesday to rule out using military or economic action to pursue acquisition of the Panama Canal and Greenland, part of a broader expansionist agenda he has promoted since winning the Nov. 5 election.

Many of Trump’s stated policies come with the risk that they stoke inflation. Even though they could be good for US businesses in the short-term, the longer-term outcome is less sure. This is a ‘known known’, to paraphrase another Donald, so markets will be watching for any signs of overheating. Therefore, even as we think that US equities are a decent place to be next year, we should all probably expect more of this sort of volatility.

Wall Street closed sharply lower on Wednesday, with the Dow falling over 1,100 points after the U.S. Federal Reserve delivered a rate cut as expected but signaled it will ease the pace of further cuts in the coming year.
