ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In our latest episode of Markets & Meaning, Sean Ashton (Head of Investments at Private Clients by Old Mutual) explores why markets are increasingly looking beyond geopolitical headlines and focusing on what is ultimately driving returns: corporate earnings. The discussion examines the unusually strong earnings cycle currently supporting markets, the role of AI-related infrastructure investment in driving growth, and why investor scepticism suggests this may be more than simply another market bubble.
Ultimately, the conversation reinforces an important lesson for long-term investors: while headlines may dominate attention, markets are often driven by deeper fundamental trends.
