How gay is your stockbroker? Champagne fuelled Diversity gala awards announced for YOU to pay for

My late uncle (by marriage) Richard would be turning in his grave. When he was at Rathbones his job was to manage money which he did well.  That was notwithstanding the fact that he was white, straight, Eton and Oxford educated and that his family originally made its money (400 years ago) from the slave trade. I doubt that with that background he’s last five minutes at Rathbones today notwithstanding him being very good at his job.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: to that bimbo at Walbrook PR who objects to me calling her (not by name) a bimbo, well you are one darling

I start by explaining why this bimbo who complained about me in public last night really is a bimbo and why her firm is in no position to complain. Then I look at why Rathbones let down my Aunt Lucy by giving her Woodford exposure – chaps you really need to sign up to a certain website. Then a look at how to value IP Group (IPO) and Woodford Patient Capital Trust (WPCT) and changing manager changes little. Finally I look at the mad woke world of Synthomer (SYNT) as it served up a warning today.
