Several stocks are mentioned in the podcast, including Oxford Instruments, Howden Joinery, Experian, Rentokil. RS Group, Safestore, Sage, AstraZeneca and SSE.

For investors who like to hunt for a bargain, discounts are wide across the investment trust universe. But, with no shortage of options, how can investors narrow down the choice? Kyle is joined by Peter Hewitt, a fund manager who specialises in buying investment trusts. Hewitt, who oversees the CT Global Managed Portfolio Trust, explains that he’s focusing on three main areas to take advantage of investment trust bargains.

One of the UK's star fund managers, Nick Train, speaks to us in this special bonus episode. As the co-founder of Lindsell Train Limited and manager for its UK equity portfolios - including the Finsbury Growth and Income Trust - Nick's approach is based on Warren Buffett’s, involving building a concentrated portfolio of 'quality' companies that have strong brands and/or powerful market franchises. He talks to interactive investor's Richard Hunter about how he does his investment research, active vs passive strategies, and what gets him out of bed in the morning after four decades of investing.

Dame Jayne-Anne Gadhia is widely regarded as one of Britain’s most successful bankers but, as she tells Gabby, didn’t always plan a career in finance.

Jayne-Anne helped Sir Richard Branson set up Virgin Money and as CEO steered the company through takeovers, a stock market float and eventual sale. She currently chairs the HMRC Board and, in 2020, launched Snoop, a money management app designed to help people become savvier with their spending and saving. Until last year, she was the Government’s Women in Finance Champion and was made a Dame in the 2019 Honours list. She met husband Ashok during freshers’ week at university and the couple have a daughter together.

Jayne-Anne reveals why her mum took charge of the family finances growing up, what life is like working for Sir Richard and why she’s always tried to make a positive difference when making big decisions at work.
