PIWORLD interview with Andy Brough: Markets & Lessons Learned in 2021
Thursday Dec 09, 2021
Thursday Dec 09, 2021
A tremendous interview that gives some insight to the highs and lows of 2021. What companies and Andy have learned through Covid. The hunt for disrupters. Activists and bid activity. The attractions of the FTSE100. We hear how an institution exits a position. The attractiveness of an IPO, a placing or an overhang. Director buys and sells. Latterly, we discuss bitcoin and NFT’s (Non Fungible Tokens). Finally, for those who want the investing challenge (or fancy themselves as a Fund Manager!), we discuss the new PIWORLD series, Sell it to the City, and what the Fund Managers, Andy, Judith and Stephen are looking for from contestants. Please contact PIWORLD.CO.UK if you want to take part. A very engaging and informative listen. Thank you Andy!
