Shownotes Transcript

As always, I'm joined by co-founder Piers Curran to discuss the major stories in markets this week, from a 39 year high in US CPI and earnings reports from J.P. Morgan and BlackRock, to Kim Kardashian being sued over promoting alt-coin EthereumMax as part of an alleged crypto scam.

We also catch up on what has been another horrendous week for UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson who is under growing pressure from senior Tories to admit he attended the drinks party in the Number 10 garden on May 20, 2020, in defiance of England’s lockdown rules.

Will he resign? what would need to happen? will Rishi Sunak be the next PM? and what does this all mean for markets? we explain a few different angles to make sense of it all.
