Disney fights off activist investor, everything about the new British Savings Bond, and a stark warning for the UK stock market

Dan Coatsworth and Danni Hewson debate the big news from Disney. Activist investor Nelson Peltz has been defeated in his attempts to get a seat on the board of directors, so what does this mean going forward?

Gold has hit another record high so Dan dives into the reasons why the precious metal is doing so well.

Danni digests some disappointing news from Tesla and what it means for the electric vehicle space.

Tom Sieber from Shares magazine talks about the state of the UK stock market and a warning from one of the big brokers that we could see hundreds more companies disappear from the London Stock Exchange over the coming years.

Jeremy Hunt promised us a new British Savings Bond when he gave his Budget last month and we’ve now got all the important details. Dan weighs up the pros and cons of the new savings vehicle.

Meanwhile, Danni explores the rise of the billionaire and why it might be worth looking down the back of the sofa for some chocolate coins.
