In light of the ongoing global economic crisis, it is crucial for everyone to prioritize investing in diverse sources of income that are not reliant on the government. This includes exploring opportunities in stocks, gold, silver, and digital currencies. Despite the challenging economic situation, it remains a favorable time to consider these investments.
The pathway to substantial returns doesn't solely rely on stocks with significant movements. Instead, it revolves around effectively managing risk relative to reward. By appropriately sizing your positions and capitalizing on your advantage repeatedly, you can progressively work towards achieving your financial goals. This principle applies across various investment approaches, whether it be long-term investing or day trading.
Yes, I've been in constant touch with a Financial Analyst for approximately 8 months. You know, these days it's really easy to buy into trending stocks, but the task is determining when to sell or keep. That's where my manager comes in, to help me with entry and exit points in the industries I'm engaged in. Can’t say I regret it, I’m 40% up in profits just in 5months with my initial capital of $160k
As a new investor it's always great to hear from a person who has gone through all the difficult times and come ahead of it. What are some strategies i can employ to be successful?
There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’ Sophia Maurine Lanting” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
I dont even know where the stock market is headed to right now. my portfolio of around 200k is not increasing more than 5% and people are predicting a crash .
you are completely right, Advisors have information and paths that are not disclosed to the public.. I profited $560k in 2023 under the tutelage of my Fiduciary-counselor. Am I selling? Absolutely not.. I am going to sit back and observe how this all plays out.

It annoys the hell out of me when Jeremy hunt says he'd like to see a British Alphabet or Microsoft. I mean, we had one, it's called ARM, and it was sold off to Japan's SoftBank in 2016.
Not really. It was a joint venture among 3 companies: one was British and the other two were American. The Americans provided the capital and the machinery needed, and the British provided manpower.
The fact that even the British funds stay a pole away from UK equities says a lot. In that case why would a retail investor even think about sinking their money on LSE, when instead one has open access to the American markets that obviously produce more value?
A lot of companies on the LSE are also owned by multinationals, hedge funds etc. The UK is a zombie country with barely any capacity of its own for economic growth. Capacity for growth outside of financial services has been gutted over the past 40 years.
The UK stock market reflects the UK, a dead empire, not globally relevant in anything that had growth that investors are looking for. The UK capital markets are as dynamic as the average British person.
The market's direction can swiftly change, with indexes frequently transitioning from a bear market to a bull market precisely when the news is most negative and investor sentiment reaches its lowest point.
For the average person, the strategies are fairly demanding. In actuality, most professionals who have the necessary abilities and knowledge to complete such occupations do so successfully.
If you do decide to make new purchases, have an exit strategy ready. Consider taking partial profits quickly to lock in some gains. I've been in regular contact with a financial analyst since covid. Investing in popular stocks is now quite straightforward; the issue is determining when to buy and sell. My advisor makes investment and exit decisions for my account, which has risen to more than $500K in less than a year.
Tracy Annette Webb is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
this isn’t a new thing in the uk The market trend can turn around very quickly. In fact, the indexes often switch from a bear market to a bull market when the news is at its worst and the mood of investors is at its lowest point. I read an article of people that grossed profits up to $150k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?
in particular, amid inflation, investors should exercise caution when it comes to their exposure and new purchases. It is only feasible to get such high yields during a recession with the guidance of a qualified specialist or reliable counsel.
True, initially I wasn't quite impressed with my gains, opposed to my previous performances, I was doing so badly, figured I needed to diverssify into better assets, I touched base with a portfolio-advisor and that same year, I pulled a net gain of 550k...that's like 7times more than I average on my own.

I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I’d suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes.

Cancel Brexit to start with. Stock market capitalization dropped from 4.3T in 2007 to 3.5T in 2020. At some point, Paris stock market overtook LSE as the biggest in Europe which is unthinkable. What is truly unthinkable is how NYSE tripled, during the same time frame mostly driven by tech. UK has truly fascinating universities and lots of talented young people but for whatever reason they choose to just be servant of a private wealth.

Uhh I'd argue the latest surge in the S&P 500 in the US causing such a boom is due to Nvidia and AI. They have a monopoly on AI chipsets and they've ramped up in value and basically propped up the S&P: "34.5% of the S&P 500's market cap gains so far this year can be attributed to Nvidia alone, according to Apollo Global Management chief economist Torsten Sløk. Shares have soared 166% in the year to date and are up more than 200% from this time a year ago". That's INSANE and hardly and makes the US market hardly a great comparison.
Pension funds are with few exception the only entities that invest in high enough quanities over large enough times to invest in the large long term projects.
Because PMs have far less affect on markets than the likes of inflation and interest rates, which are driven by the US FED, which affects the whole World. The fact that people don't understand just how influential and important the US FED's decisions are is a highlighted failure of the education system in the UK. A 1 hour read on Central Banking, or hell even a search on TH-cam, would gain you a far better understanding of WHY we have inflation, WHY we have high interest rates, WHY our economy suffers as a result,. WHY the LSE is down. But instead it's "Nah Brexit innit fam" and you "ain't got no time to read blud" while you wander off watching TikTok crap for an hour instead.
@@Dynasty1818 Liz Truss crashed the currency in an afternoon, and when was brexit mentioned? Even then brexit certainly added to making things more uncertain for investors
In a world organized in blocs you need leverage. The UK on its own has no leverage. The narrative of the last century where the UK benefitted from its tax havens and tax rules but still being part of a bloc, no longer applies. Blocs will not use London anymore. They do not want to keep their financial affairs outside their own borders. Whoever thinks that the attractiveness of the City outside the EU is the same as before inside the EU, does not understand the new world. And yes Brexit is an important reason the UK is losing despite the unicorns Hunt is trying to sell here.
Accreting into bigger blocs is merely one of many deliberate steps towards one world government, one digital currency, total surveillance and the end of democracy as we know it. We’ll just be worker drones doing the bidding of our neofeudal overlords in exchange for a tiny apartment in a 15 minute compound with 3 squares of bugs a day if we’re lucky.
The problem isn't unique to the UK. In fact, I note the irony where the narrator talks about the LSE losing CRH and PaddyPower to the US when both are Irish companies that the Irish Stock Exchange lost to London.
Almost every problem isn't unique to the UK. The public are just too uninformed and annoyed to blame anything other than themselves and the Tories. Do the Tories need to go? 1000% agreed, can't stand them. But if anyone believes ANY government will fix the issues we face, you shouldn't be voting.
The LSE is supposed to be a global financial powerhouse. Quite patently, it isn't, and that's a problem for a country that markets itself as a global leader and left a huge market because it thought it could do better outside of it due to apparently being a global financial powerhouse.
@paraponon The British economy hasn't been globally significant since WW2. So the LSE (and the city as a whole) could only ever retain their global significance by being international. And so as finance has gotten more international, it initially worked to their favour as they become a hub for European finance. But now the internationalisation of finance is working against it because now all of the money is flowing to the states.
@@thetroyzernatorLondon has always been an important financial centre - we INVENTED modern finance and capitalism ffs. There is history and tradition in finance in Britain that cannot be replicated elsewhere- never underestimate the British.
The biggest problem with the UK is we need more businesses. Why should I set up my business in the UK when I will have to pay 25% corp tax, ridiculously high dividend/capital gains/income tax and I will have to work my way around the highly inefficient and highly regulated market. Compare this to somewhere like Singapore, the UK is failing. As a start up owner, there is ZERO incentive to stay in the UK.
I spent 12 years in Singapore. It's a great place to cash out, raise younger kids and place an Asia HQ for a mature business. However, it's not great for early tech startups. In comparison to London, Shanghai or California its small, expensive and - because of its scale - has a tiny pool of locally based technical talent.

Id go for global equities. US outperformed itnernational in the past 2-3 decades, but before it was another story where international performed better.
I live in the UK and recently inherited some money. A broker came to talk to me and it was obvious that the UK stock market isn't worth investing in so I put my money to work internationally.

@@ThumosPartners I do this with 212, looked at all the UK stocks and UK tracked ETF's and they were dire in comparison to US markets. I'd love to invest in the UK, but I want my money to actually work for me.
This is a bit of a long comment but there’s some nuance which I think is important. Our (London) stock market is what is widely perceived to be a dinosaur equity market that’s overly reliant on old economy sectors such as oil and banks which leads to my next point. On lack of exciting companies listing - we're risk-averse as a country, and the doesn't bode well for startups specialising in things like AI (the new hot topic) and quantum computing, whose large capital expenditures require years of patience. A key accelerant in the move of some listings to the US is a lack of liquidity in the UK, understandably so, if UK plc's can fetch higher valuations and a larger investor base whilst US listing rules aren’t extremely tight, why wouldn't they move? An example of this was Arm Holdings choosing Nasdaq over the LSE in 2023, this isn’t to say that breaking into the US will be easy, even though Arm have been successful in doing so. I remember reading a report on Bloomberg talking about how the UK tech struggle to keep up with Bay Area/Silicon Valley tech in terms of funding. Funding for startups (companies valued at no more than $15m - 91% funded, $4.1bn for UK vs $4.5bn), but the moment UK companies reach scaleup status (valuations of $15m-100m), we raise $7.1bn vs $13.9bn for Bay Area which is 51%, and it gets even harder when tech companies in the UK reach breakout status (>$100m valuation) as we raise $7.8bn vs $35.2bn in the Bay Area which is 22% of funds raised in comparison to SV. Also, in the early 2000s, the UK government introduced new rules forcing retirement fund managers to be more open about their investments and about how they planned to meet future pension obligations. One result was a shift out of riskier equities - the pension industry’s preferred investment until that point - and into safer government bonds. The trend was reinforced over the following decade as millions of workers holding so-called defined-benefit pension plans retired. Pension managers doubled down on government debt at the expense of shares so they could better match their long-term liabilities to those retirees. What’s more, what little equity allocation the funds retained was put increasingly into stocks in other markets as they tried to diversify their holdings. UK pension funds held 1.6% of UK-listed stocks in 2022, down from about 32% in 1992, according to data from the Office for National Statistics. Edit: thanks to depressed valuations, London’s allure as a center for IPO activity has been diluted by a glut of alternative funding from private equity. That’s been compounded by some woeful stock performances in the wake of high-profile listings, including Deliveroo Plc, Dr Martens Plc and Ithaca Energy Plc. Meanwhile, headlines around companies leaving London for other exchanges have hurt the City’s image as a place to do IPOs. I've heard Shein want to IPO in London for around $64bn, but imo I don't think it'll revive London's capital markets the way people think it would, the company has controversial ethical + sustainability practices, as well as possible IP theft and moreover, they chose London as they couldn't file for an IPO because of hurdles to the listing in the US which is tied to the earlier point about their shady practices. We're basically 2nd choice if firms applications for US based IPO's (NYSE or Nasdaq) get rejected.

@@syedadeelhussain2691- I agree with that comment. The level of numeracy in the U.K. is very poor, it’s still cool for someone to say, they’re not good with numbers, something most people would never admit to in relation to reading and writing. Most U.K. adults struggle even with basic math, never mind anything more complex. Several years ago when I was in my late 40s I did an evening class on IOS programming - one of the lessons on graphics included some matrix algebra. Pretty much everyone in the class apart from myself and two other people struggled so much, the module was eventually dropped from the course. The lecturer who was Polish later told me this was stuff every polish high school student could do in their sleep. Ok so linear algebra may not be basic math, but my point is, that in many other countries this stuff is seen as basic…..having a country were large sections of the population cannot even work out percentages, volume, area, division etc should be seen as a national scandal.

I think the other thing that often times gets undersold is that the American government invested literally hundred of billions in Silicon Valley. There doesn’t seem to be any appetite in Britain for that kind of investment.
@@victortoba-ogunleye4056 of course we do. We spent hundreds of billions during the COVID pandemic, if we could do it then we could have done it on infrastructure projects or other high return on investment projects.
Ultimately, in the case of the UK, at least, it's a mentality thing. The average Brit is not a risk taker. The culture is also overly critical of failure. Also, beyond outside of London, most Brits are largely broke, and this affects their relationship with money. One of the interviewees caught it when she said if the British government sent covid checks, most Brits would never use it to purchase stocks. That was apt. Until the British mentality changes, nothing will change. You must also understand the cultural impact of the Brits coming from a feudal system as opposed to the more egalitarian/entrepreneurial system that birthed America. Over time, these qualities are passed on through genetics. We are seeing it play out in the outcomes.
It really doesn't matter to anyone except the exchanges which exchange people list their companies on. These days, everything is online and international and the Nasdaq is no less British than the London Stock Exchange is. British people can buy companies listed on the Nasdaq just like Americans can buy companies listed on the London Stock Exchange. And the only thing stopping companies from listing on the Ethereum network is out-of-date regulations. If the London Stock Exchange wants more companies to list with them and more people to invest in their companies, they need to be the ones to take action.

@@ian4692I know this video focuses on pension investment but it would also be interesting to find out where the money paid for the startups and ideas goes to. It could end up being reinvested in more new ideas(great!), or lead to the scientists and business people getting the payday wasting the rest of their lives on a beach somewhere(very bad!). Are the Americans just paying for a technology transfer then transferring the company’s development to the US? There was a study done I think showing how Nobel Prize winners stop being productive after they win, they stopped publishing scientific papers, due to the $1mm+ award they get.
So the government blames the pension funds while asking them to invest in bonds (basically the government debt). In the meanwhile most of the people see housing in the UK as an investment (while housing value only goes up because of the scarcity). Perhaps the government could reduce their debt, relax pension funds rules and support the creation of more houses.
Would’ve loved to have seen a contrasting opinion. Why should we trust the UK market? Where have they improved the quality of life of the public for one to trust them, especially with our pensions? These answers are being asked about the AI companies in the US, where there is an increasingly pessimistic attitude towards them.
Pessimistic attitude? Not really. We are looking for some accountability, but I wouldn't call the attitude pessimistic. It is actually quite the opposite. Americans are generally more willing to take risks compared to Brits. Americans are eager to invest in start-ups fully aware that these are risky bets but the payoff can be huge.
@@elifuentes7070 Perhaps the upper class of American society is more willing, but trends have shown a lack of risk taking towards the market within the middle class. That American mindset to look towards risk is no longer what it was.

@@elifuentes7070 How does that translate to what I am saying? Recent surveys have show record lows of middle class investment in the equity market. It only points towards a growing disparity in our country.
@@Jorge-lh6px Really? Statistics show that the percentage of poor Americans is at record lows. A large part of equity markets is held by DB pension funds and DC retirement such as IRAs and 401(k)s.

As a former part time trader in Brazil and having traded on the LSE I can confirm that the brokers in the UK suck. Their platforms, execution time, customer service, fees are rubbish. They basically force you to trade US stocks using american brokers. Even comparing to a development country like Brazil which has a much more developed stock market particularly for small investors like me...

@@zenastronomy I am Brazilian and traded whilst still being a tax resident. Since I'm now a UK resident I no longer trade there. However I do know that Brazilian brokers only accept high net worth foreigners provided they indicate a legal representative in that country. The reason for that - to summarise - is excessive bureaucracy and the local brokers being heavily accountable for any wrongdoing such as money laundering from the client. What I can suggest is to trade Brazilian shares via ADR or OTC shares in the US. You can have access to around 50+ Brazilian stocks. I do even have access to many of them via my share dealing ISA. The downside is you can't trade derivatives nor fixed-income.
@@zenastronomy not sure why but my previous reply to you got deleted... So I'll give you a shorter answer: I'm no longer a tax resident in Brazil so not trading on Bovespa anymore.

It's telling that UK pensions funds invest less in UK equities points to a systemic problem and a divergent view on value. Forcing greater risk taking and domestic bias undermines the fiduciary duties to maximise returns that pensioners could draw down at a time where risky investment destinations and money-burning tech startups are floundering. The UK should improve productivity, given the loss of EU manpower resources to mitigate this given Brexit
I think there is a broader issue here, that centres around the overall sentiment of the UK's future. Productivity is low, we have a younger generations bowing out and going NEET, social instability, political instability as demonstrated by Brexit, etc. We have no clear direction on what we are trying to do. The major VCs in EU, for example, don't pay much attention to the UK. And if the governments force Pensions to invest in UK in order to prop up the markets, this could risk loading the average person with lower returning assets than if they invested globally.
@@erertertert44 yes that's true. I think the UK does have a particular problem though we seem to have the worst of both worlds. UK companies like to cosplay as American corps (hours worked, for example, have been steadily rising) while our outcomes are more like those in Italy. German companies have a social democratic outlook with lots of investment in apprenticeships and training of younger people while in the UK apprentices and interns are seen as cheap labour, barely trained and their output is hardly monitored (except in trades). Italy and Germany still have a lot of small and medium manufacturing companies while the UK has some of those in specialist technical fields but large areas of the country have nothing but retail e.g. LSE: WIX, LSE: TPK. Much of the UK is astonishingly unproductive for a developed economy. Foreign investors who've bought UK firms have struggled because they've underestimated the difficulties of running e.g. a UK retail chain with the levels of waste and the sluggish performance that has become typical in the UK.
15:25 If you take US as an example or "proper" risk taking by pension funds, then it would seem this risk taking yields much worse - US pension performance is a lot worse then UK is.
Most Americans do not have pensions though. Think about America is that it has a pretty diverse set of capital ranging from international capital, 401(k)’s, IRA etc. I think this was saying that the Uk mostly just has pensions
I don't think it gives you the full picture I think the UK has higher yields because of the nature of bonds and government securities in the UK: inflation indexed. The past 3 years have pulled the UK average up, not because the market is doing better, quite the opposit actually.

Consider US or India, retail investors are pumping a lot money in the stocks. The same goes for Pension funds and Insurance funds. Its probably the type of Economy, UK is now, which is not into high risk investments! Ultimately, investors around the globe look for higher returns!
I do think there needs to be a change in culture. I’m someone who is interested and likes investing, but when I try to talk to people about it they either have no interest or think it’s gambling. Whereas, when I lived in the US there was more understanding of financial markets and more interest in investing. This is why our growth has been terrible because people don’t have the same risk appetite compared to US investors.
Allow businesses to grow without being stifled at every turn. We couldn't even have a dog walking field on our own derelict land because of planning laws.

How to ‘save the City’ is a misnomer, because the City does not need saving at large. Its capital markets do. That said, the City goes far, far beyond public equities - something alluded to at the very start by pointing out that global equity listings have dropped sharply. There are better ways to raise capital in today’s economy, and the City is very much at their forefront. The Americans, for their part, clearly own the capital markets game. Props.
For dividend investors LSE is great. If you're buying decent, profitable companies at a good price in relation to earnings, and that company pays generous dividends, it doesn't really matter too much if there is some turbulence in the market. The dividends you are getting back still beat any returns you will get on your bonds. This is why I don't understand the UK pension funds' risk aversion in the case of buying bonds, when the equity investments they do make are reliant on growth of US businesses that don't pay dividends and are more exposed to investor sentiment.
This is deeply depressing. Something akin to the dividends paid from our water companies? When that money should be reinvested? You've just said the quiet part out loud. You're not supposed to do that.
@mitsterful well yes, reinvesting for growth can be more profitable. And the water companies is a great example of this, where there are huge savings and efficiencies to be made by reinvestment. I guess LSE investors are too shaken to rely on growth alone 🤷♂️
That's exactly the difference between the US and the UK, the UK only cares about a short-term profit of high dividend yield rather than reinvesting the money into the business.
@@Dionn91 It is a bit of a sweeping statement. In UK there are some very old companies that are happy to grow organically and return profits to investors. This is a pretty safe model and generates higher returns than gilts. Reinvestment can be used to shore up the business, which is great, but can sometimes be used irresponsibly leading to unsustainable growth and higher risk. It very much depends on the business.
Dude you're just wasting time trying to explain it. Even if you open some 'value investing' sub on sites like reddit 95% of talk is about some price fluctuations on Nvidia, Meta, google at best or some scamcompanies issuing shares like crazy (lately "AI" is the new shining obect to chase) etc. In the end it doesn't matter what you buy, but for how much you buy it in comparison to future cashflows so historically speaking markets with bad sentiment generate best return long term. At the moment UK is great value, same as China and Turkey.

I’ve been working in tech and specifically software engineering for over 30 years. We have some of the smartest people here in the U.K. but we do not have the venture capitalist who are willing to invest in tech startups, like they do in other countries. I have personally worked on embryonic projects that have been bought out by foreign companies, who have turned them into viable platforms, applications, or tool sets. The investment rarely in my experience comes from the U.K. We had this problem 35 years ago when I joined the industry, and we still have the same problem today……and I can’t see it getting any better in the future.
Other economies are on the rise and it is EXPECTED that their stock exchanges will rise as well -- which means London and NY will become proportionally smaller. WHAT ABOUT INVESTING IN THE PRODUCTIVE ECONOMY?
That’s a smart move!! And also investing in stocks will be of great help. I started investing in stocks last 2 years and I was able to make $350 to 500k this year.

In light of the ongoing global economic crisis, it is crucial for everyone to prioritize investing in diverse sources of income that are not reliant on the government. This includes exploring opportunities in stocks, gold, silver, and digital currencies. Despite the challenging economic situation, it remains a favorable time to consider these investments.
The pathway to substantial returns doesn't solely rely on stocks with significant movements. Instead, it revolves around effectively managing risk relative to reward. By appropriately sizing your positions and capitalizing on your advantage repeatedly, you can progressively work towards achieving your financial goals. This principle applies across various investment approaches, whether it be long-term investing or day trading.
Yes, I've been in constant touch with a Financial Analyst for approximately 8 months. You know, these days it's really easy to buy into trending stocks, but the task is determining when to sell or keep.

The fact that even the British funds stay a pole away from UK equities says a lot. In that case why would a retail investor even think about sinking their money on LSE, when instead one has open access to the American markets that obviously produce more value?
A lot of companies on the LSE are also owned by multinationals, hedge funds etc. The UK is a zombie country with barely any capacity of its own for economic growth. Capacity for growth outside of financial services has been gutted over the past 40 years.

The UK stock market reflects the UK, a dead empire, not globally relevant in anything that had growth that investors are looking for. The UK capital markets are as dynamic as the average British person.
The market's direction can swiftly change, with indexes frequently transitioning from a bear market to a bull market precisely when the news is most negative and investor sentiment reaches its lowest point.
For the average person, the strategies are fairly demanding. In actuality, most professionals who have the necessary abilities and knowledge to complete such occupations do so successfully.
If you do decide to make new purchases, have an exit strategy ready. Consider taking partial profits quickly to lock in some gains. I've been in regular contact with a financial analyst since covid. Investing in popular stocks is now quite straightforward; the issue is determining when to buy and sell. My advisor makes investment and exit decisions for my account, which has risen to more than $500K in less than a year.

in particular, amid inflation, investors should exercise caution when it comes to their exposure and new purchases. It is only feasible to get such high yields during a recession with the guidance of a qualified specialist or reliable counsel.

Uhh I'd argue the latest surge in the S&P 500 in the US causing such a boom is due to Nvidia and AI. They have a monopoly on AI chipsets and they've ramped up in value and basically propped up the S&P: "34.5% of the S&P 500's market cap gains so far this year can be attributed to Nvidia alone, according to Apollo Global Management chief economist Torsten Sløk. Shares have soared 166% in the year to date and are up more than 200% from this time a year ago". That's INSANE and hardly and makes the US market hardly a great comparison.
Common denominator in that time is having the corruptervatives serving themselves at the expense of every single person in the UK

How could anyone have confidence in the Uk with 4 PMs in 6 years.
Because PMs have far less affect on markets than the likes of inflation and interest rates, which are driven by the US FED, which affects the whole World. The fact that people don't understand just how influential and important the US FED's decisions are is a highlighted failure of the education system in the UK. A 1 hour read on Central Banking, or hell even a search on TH-cam, would gain you a far better understanding of WHY we have inflation, WHY we have high interest rates, WHY our economy suffers as a result,. WHY the LSE is down. But instead it's "Nah Brexit innit fam" and you "ain't got no time to read blud" while you wander off watching TikTok crap for an hour instead.

Crazy that you mentioned it. The government in the UK is volatile. There were only 4 US presidents in the past 24 years.
In a world organized in blocs you need leverage. The UK on its own has no leverage. The narrative of the last century where the UK benefitted from its tax havens and tax rules but still being part of a bloc, no longer applies. Blocs will not use London anymore. They do not want to keep their financial affairs outside their own borders. Whoever thinks that the attractiveness of the City outside the EU is the same as before inside the EU, does not understand the new world. And yes Brexit is an important reason the UK is losing despite the unicorns Hunt is trying to sell here.
Accreting into bigger blocs is merely one of many deliberate steps towards one world government, one digital currency, total surveillance and the end of democracy as we know it.

The problem isn't unique to the UK.
In fact, I note the irony where the narrator talks about the LSE losing CRH and PaddyPower to the US when both are Irish companies that the Irish Stock Exchange lost to London.
Almost every problem isn't unique to the UK. The public are just too uninformed and annoyed to blame anything other than themselves and the Tories. Do the Tories need to go? 1000% agreed, can't stand them. But if anyone believes ANY government will fix the issues we face, you shouldn't be voting.
The LSE is supposed to be a global financial powerhouse. Quite patently, it isn't, and that's a problem for a country that markets itself as a global leader and left a huge market because it thought it could do better outside of it due to apparently being a global financial powerhouse.
@paraponon
The British economy hasn't been globally significant since WW2. So the LSE (and the city as a whole) could only ever retain their global significance by being international. And so as finance has gotten more international, it initially worked to their favour as they become a hub for European finance. But now the internationalisation of finance is working against it because now all of the money is flowing to the states.
@@thetroyzernatorLondon has always been an important financial centre - we INVENTED modern finance and capitalism ffs. There is history and tradition in finance in Britain that cannot be replicated elsewhere- never underestimate the British.

The biggest problem with the UK is we need more businesses. Why should I set up my business in the UK when I will have to pay 25% corp tax, ridiculously high dividend/capital gains/income tax and I will have to work my way around the highly inefficient and highly regulated market. Compare this to somewhere like Singapore, the UK is failing. As a start up owner, there is ZERO incentive to stay in the UK.
I spent 12 years in Singapore. It's a great place to cash out, raise younger kids and place an Asia HQ for a mature business.
However, it's not great for early tech startups. In comparison to London, Shanghai or California its small, expensive and - because of its scale - has a tiny pool of locally based technical talent.
Highly regulated market? Highly depends on the industry but its one of the easiest places in the world to start a business.

This is a bit of a long comment but there’s some nuance which I think is important. Our (London) stock market is what is widely perceived to be a dinosaur equity market that’s overly reliant on old economy sectors such as oil and banks which leads to my next point.
On lack of exciting companies listing - we're risk-averse as a country, and the doesn't bode well for startups specialising in things like AI (the new hot topic) and quantum computing, whose large capital expenditures require years of patience. A key accelerant in the move of some listings to the US is a lack of liquidity in the UK, understandably so, if UK plc's can fetch higher valuations and a larger investor base whilst US listing rules aren’t extremely tight, why wouldn't they move? An example of this was Arm Holdings choosing Nasdaq over the LSE in 2023, this isn’t to say that breaking into the US will be easy, even though Arm have been successful in doing so.
I remember reading a report on Bloomberg talking about how the UK tech struggle to keep up with Bay Area/Silicon Valley tech in terms of funding. Funding for startups (companies valued at no more than $15m - 91% funded, $4.1bn for UK vs $4.5bn), but the moment UK companies reach scaleup status (valuations of $15m-100m), we raise $7.1bn vs $13.9bn for Bay Area which is 51%, and it gets even harder when tech companies in the UK reach breakout status (>$100m valuation) as we raise $7.8bn vs $35.2bn in the Bay Area which is 22% of funds raised in comparison to SV.
Also, in the early 2000s, the UK government introduced new rules forcing retirement fund managers to be more open about their investments and about how they planned to meet future pension obligations. One result was a shift out of riskier equities - the pension industry’s preferred investment until that point - and into safer government bonds. The trend was reinforced over the following decade as millions of workers holding so-called defined-benefit pension plans retired. Pension managers doubled down on government debt at the expense of shares so they could better match their long-term liabilities to those retirees. What’s more, what little equity allocation the funds retained was put increasingly into stocks in other markets as they tried to diversify their holdings. UK pension funds held 1.6% of UK-listed stocks in 2022, down from about 32% in 1992, according to data from the Office for National Statistics.
Edit: thanks to depressed valuations, London’s allure as a center for IPO activity has been diluted by a glut of alternative funding from private equity. That’s been compounded by some woeful stock performances in the wake of high-profile listings, including Deliveroo Plc, Dr Martens Plc and Ithaca Energy Plc. Meanwhile, headlines around companies leaving London for other exchanges have hurt the City’s image as a place to do IPOs. I've heard Shein want to IPO in London for around $64bn, but imo I don't think it'll revive London's capital markets the way people think it would, the company has controversial ethical + sustainability practices, as well as possible IP theft and moreover, they chose London as they couldn't file for an IPO because of hurdles to the listing in the US which is tied to the earlier point about their shady practices. We're basically 2nd choice if firms applications for US based IPO's (NYSE or Nasdaq) get rejected.

Ultimately, in the case of the UK, at least, it's a mentality thing. The average Brit is not a risk taker. The culture is also overly critical of failure. Also, beyond outside of London, most Brits are largely broke, and this affects their relationship with money. One of the interviewees caught it when she said if the British government sent covid checks, most Brits would never use it to purchase stocks. That was apt.
Until the British mentality changes, nothing will change.
You must also understand the cultural impact of the Brits coming from a feudal system as opposed to the more egalitarian/entrepreneurial system that birthed America. Over time, these qualities are passed on through genetics.
We are seeing it play out in the outcomes.
It really doesn't matter to anyone except the exchanges which exchange people list their companies on. These days, everything is online and international and the Nasdaq is no less British than the London Stock Exchange is.
British people can buy companies listed on the Nasdaq just like Americans can buy companies listed on the London Stock Exchange. And the only thing stopping companies from listing on the Ethereum network is out-of-date regulations.
If the London Stock Exchange wants more companies to list with them and more people to invest in their companies, they need to be the ones to take action.

@@ian4692I know this video focuses on pension investment but it would also be interesting to find out where the money paid for the startups and ideas goes to. It could end up being reinvested in more new ideas(great!), or lead to the scientists and business people getting the payday wasting the rest of their lives on a beach somewhere(very bad!). Are the Americans just paying for a technology transfer then transferring the company’s development to the US? There was a study done I think showing how Nobel Prize winners stop being productive after they win, they stopped publishing scientific papers, due to the $1mm+ award they get.
So the government blames the pension funds while asking them to invest in bonds (basically the government debt). In the meanwhile most of the people see housing in the UK as an investment (while housing value only goes up because of the scarcity). Perhaps the government could reduce their debt, relax pension funds rules and support the creation of more houses.

Pessimistic attitude? Not really. We are looking for some accountability, but I wouldn't call the attitude pessimistic. It is actually quite the opposite.

The reason for that - to summarise - is excessive bureaucracy and the local brokers being heavily accountable for any wrongdoing such as money laundering from the client.
What I can suggest is to trade Brazilian shares via ADR or OTC shares in the US. You can have access to around 50+ Brazilian stocks. I do even have access to many of them via my share dealing ISA. The downside is you can't trade derivatives nor fixed-income.
@@zenastronomy not sure why but my previous reply to you got deleted... So I'll give you a shorter answer:
I'm no longer a tax resident in Brazil so not trading on Bovespa anymore. The only way I think you can do is to trade ADRs and OTC shares via US exchanges and you likely can do that with your current broker. There are at least 50 Brazilian shares you can trade like that.
@@AShiga any companies you invested in, you can recommend i do research on?
@@zenastronomy Having traded Brazilian stocks for 13 years in the past (2006-2019), I wouldn't recommend investing in that market for the long term. If you are a daytrader, there's always good money to be made as that market is so volatile... It is also too sensitive to government changes and regulations change far too frequently. Terrible for businnesses. The one investment I think there's always money to be made is in government bonds. Alternatively I think there's so much more potential in Argentinian stocks right now than in Brazil.
Your signals and strategies really work. I've been following your recommendations for several months now and getting great results.

"I think we should get over executive pay being high" no, I don't think I will, FT

@@c.2518 Low executive pay = good executives leave for other countries like the US so we are stuck with shitty managers who produce low productivity.

It's telling that UK pensions funds invest less in UK equities points to a systemic problem and a divergent view on value. Forcing greater risk taking and domestic bias undermines the fiduciary duties to maximise returns that pensioners could draw down at a time where risky investment destinations and money-burning tech startups are floundering. The UK should improve productivity, given the loss of EU manpower resources to mitigate this given Brexit
I think there is a broader issue here, that centres around the overall sentiment of the UK's future. Productivity is low, we have a younger generations bowing out and going NEET, social instability, political instability as demonstrated by Brexit, etc. We have no clear direction on what we are trying to do. The major VCs in EU, for example, don't pay much attention to the UK.
And if the governments force Pensions to invest in UK in order to prop up the markets, this could risk loading the average person with lower returning assets than if they invested globally.
It's the same in Europe, I think its a europe/old world problem. Look at France, Italy, Spain even Germany.
@@erertertert44 yes that's true. I think the UK does have a particular problem though we seem to have the worst of both worlds. UK companies like to cosplay as American corps (hours worked, for example, have been steadily rising) while our outcomes are more like those in Italy. German companies have a social democratic outlook with lots of investment in apprenticeships and training of younger people while in the UK apprentices and interns are seen as cheap labour, barely trained and their output is hardly monitored (except in trades).
Italy and Germany still have a lot of small and medium manufacturing companies while the UK has some of those in specialist technical fields but large areas of the country have nothing but retail e.g. LSE: WIX, LSE: TPK.
Much of the UK is astonishingly unproductive for a developed economy. Foreign investors who've bought UK firms have struggled because they've underestimated the difficulties of running e.g. a UK retail chain with the levels of waste and the sluggish performance that has become typical in the UK.
15:25 If you take US as an example or "proper" risk taking by pension funds, then it would seem this risk taking yields much worse - US pension performance is a lot worse then UK is.
Most Americans do not have pensions though. Think about America is that it has a pretty diverse set of capital ranging from international capital, 401(k)’s, IRA etc. I think this was saying that the Uk mostly just has pensions
I don't think it gives you the full picture I think the UK has higher yields because of the nature of bonds and government securities in the UK: inflation indexed. The past 3 years have pulled the UK average up, not because the market is doing better, quite the opposit actually.

Consider US or India, retail investors are pumping a lot money in the stocks. The same goes for Pension funds and Insurance funds. Its probably the type of Economy, UK is now, which is not into high risk investments! Ultimately, investors around the globe look for higher returns!
I do think there needs to be a change in culture. I’m someone who is interested and likes investing, but when I try to talk to people about it they either have no interest or think it’s gambling. Whereas, when I lived in the US there was more understanding of financial markets and more interest in investing. This is why our growth has been terrible because people don’t have the same risk appetite compared to US investors.
Issue with digital tech firms is that they aren’t accountable at all… the data they have is never audited or checked to actually align with reality…
Allow businesses to grow without being stifled at every turn.
We couldn't even have a dog walking field on our own derelict land because of planning laws.
The revenue it would have generated would have been beneficial to the economy through jobs and taxes.
Instead the land sits there generating nothing.
Start early with diversified investments in stocks, bonds, and real estate. Maximize contributions to tax-advantaged accounts like 401(k)s and IRAs. Regularly review and adjust your strategy to ensure security....
Very possible! especially at this moment. Profits can be made in many different ways, but such intricate transactions should only be handled by seasoned market professionals.
Some persons think inves'tin is all about buying stocks; I think going into the stock market without a good experience is a big risk, that's why I'm lucky to have seen someone like mr Brian C Nelson.
Brian demonstrates an excellent understanding of market trends, making well informed decisions that leads to consistent profit
I'm surprised that you just mentioned and recommend Mr Brian Nelson. I met him at a conference in 2018 and we have been working together ever since.
Yes! I'm celebrating £32K stock portfolio today... Started this journey with £3K.... I've invested no time and also with the right terms, now I have time for my family and life ahead of me.
Excellent story. Don’t be led along by the USA 401k plan . It’s not at every company and not everyone is participating in it. A lot of plans have poor options and high costs so employers aren’t willing to indulge in it. I was lucky because we had an excellent plan along with company provided stock incentives.
I think I’m addicted to your channel. So much valuable info!

In 1999, the EU forced Greece to deregulate the public pension funds, to fund the growth of the Greek stock exchange. The stock market bubble collapse and Greece had to borrow massively to cover these holes. We all know what happened next...

How can you have a consumerist economy when the average person does not have enough money to consume? They can just about afford the very basics.

Its really telling these people are blaming the pension funds who are supposed to responsibly invest for there investors... The reality is we have all the talent and people for startups. Its the Middle stage as boards and CEOS and Shareholders want returns rather than long-term growth via inward investment. This is what has caused the UK to have low productivity due to a lack of investments and creating a poorer growth environment for young companies to mature... LACK of inward investment and short-term CEOs, Boards, and Management practices create this poor culture and environment. Bad for Productivity and Growth environment for young companies. Sort that out and you've got the recipe, pension funds will come naturally...
I liked it very much, I will follow your new posts.
If you are in the UK remember you can transfer pensions to other providers. Rather than stay with an actively managed fund, you can put it all on a global all cap tracker with less fees. Liz truss stint in government didn’t hit my pension because I had no bonds!
which global all cap tracker? which provider?
Yeah, thats a smart move, round up all the people who built this slow moving, risk adverse, antiquated, corporate environment and ask them to road map a fast moving, innovative, streamlined eco system.
Chairing CMIT you have - Julia Hoggett, CEO of the London Stock Exchange plc,Chair of the Taskforce.
You clearly stated at the beginning of this report " the number of companies listed on public exchanges has falling by almost 50% and the number of new companies has come down by a 1/3rd" ....Talk about the blind leading the blind!
Political instability also plays a big part. Labour and capital are linked. If you want to attract capital you have to allow the movement of labour. Unfortunately british politics is marred by anti migration debate. This is taking us back to 'old England' rather than 'great Britain'

The elephant in the room is Brexit, a developed country harming itself over populism isn’t a good place to invest.
How to ‘save the City’ is a misnomer, because the City does not need saving at large. Its capital markets do. That said, the City goes far, far beyond public equities - something alluded to at the very start by pointing out that global equity listings have dropped sharply. There are better ways to raise capital in today’s economy, and the City is very much at their forefront. The Americans, for their part, clearly own the capital markets game. Props.
Brexit is a major issue that would help the stock market
For dividend investors LSE is great. If you're buying decent, profitable companies at a good price in relation to earnings, and that company pays generous dividends, it doesn't really matter too much if there is some turbulence in the market. The dividends you are getting back still beat any returns you will get on your bonds. This is why I don't understand the UK pension funds' risk aversion in the case of buying bonds, when the equity investments they do make are reliant on growth of US businesses that don't pay dividends and are more exposed to investor sentiment.
This is deeply depressing. Something akin to the dividends paid from our water companies? When that money should be reinvested?
You've just said the quiet part out loud. You're not supposed to do that.
@mitsterful well yes, reinvesting for growth can be more profitable. And the water companies is a great example of this, where there are huge savings and efficiencies to be made by reinvestment. I guess LSE investors are too shaken to rely on growth alone 🤷♂️
That's exactly the difference between the US and the UK, the UK only cares about a short-term profit of high dividend yield rather than reinvesting the money into the business.
@@Dionn91 It is a bit of a sweeping statement. In UK there are some very old companies that are happy to grow organically and return profits to investors. This is a pretty safe model and generates higher returns than gilts. Reinvestment can be used to shore up the business, which is great, but can sometimes be used irresponsibly leading to unsustainable growth and higher risk. It very much depends on the business.
Dude you're just wasting time trying to explain it. Even if you open some 'value investing' sub on sites like reddit 95% of talk is about some price fluctuations on Nvidia, Meta, google at best or some scamcompanies issuing shares like crazy (lately "AI" is the new shining obect to chase) etc. In the end it doesn't matter what you buy, but for how much you buy it in comparison to future cashflows so historically speaking markets with bad sentiment generate best return long term. At the moment UK is great value, same as China and Turkey. People forget how SP500 often stays flat for decades, laugh at bubbles like nifty 50, while creaming their pants how 'great' magnificent seven is for the market.
The more things change the more they stay the same.

Thankyou for introducing us these concepts, btw I am in profit!!!!
I’ve been working in tech and specifically software engineering for over 30 years. We have some of the smartest people here in the U.K. but we do not have the venture capitalist who are willing to invest in tech startups, like they do in other countries. I have personally worked on embryonic projects that have been bought out by foreign companies, who have turned them into viable platforms, applications, or tool sets. The investment rarely in my experience comes from the U.K. We had this problem 35 years ago when I joined the industry, and we still have the same problem today……and I can’t see it getting any better in the future.
