Retail reopening, attractions of family-run businesses and return of Mark Barnett
15 Apr 2021
This week’s podcast looks at the challenges facing retailers as shops reopen in England. Danni Hewson talks about the likes of JD Sports and Primark’s owner Associated British Foods, together with a look at how Tesco has fared during the pandemic. Joe Bauernfreund from AVI Global Trust joins the show to talk about the attractions of family-run businesses from an investment perspective. Dan Coatsworth discusses the return of former star fund manager Mark Barnett and he chats with Laith Khalaf about the FTSE 250 index of UK companies hitting a new record high. Laith also dives into the world of closet trackers, namely funds where managers aren’t really adding much value despite being paid an annual fee. Finally, Jenny Owen talks about a surreal money-related story involving beer and robots.
