Onze analist van dienst stond al met zijn neus bij de etalage voor een paar aandeeltjes Klarna, toen deze op $30 noteerde. Als een kindje dat pruimen zag hangen, o, als appelen zo groot! Maar wat kan hij in zijn handjes wrijven, want de bodem was voor Klarna nog lang niet in zicht. Na de beursgang in september verloor de Zweedse fintech 70% van haar marktwaarde. Terecht, of is Klarna de kans van de eeuw? En Trump stort beleggers wereldwijd weer in de onzekerheid met zijn heffingenheisa. Goed nieuws voor Azië, waar de nieuwe heffingen lager uitpakken dan de vorige. In het VK zullen ze daarentegen minder staan te springen. Wat is er dit weekend nou precies gebeurd, en wat betekent dat voor jou? Ook daar is genoeg om uit te pakken. Verder in deze show: Box-3 voer voor hoofdredactie Washington Post Netflix bestuurslid moet ONMIDDELIJK ontslagen worden van Trump, terwijl ze middenin de overnamestrijd rond Warner Bros zitten McDonalds is het nieuwe goud Waarom de Zuid-Koreanen dol zijn op hefboompjes VEB wil dat de AFM onderzoek gaat doen naar handel met voorkennis in aandelen van InPost Te gast: Justin Blekemolen van online broker Lynx BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij BNR Zakendoen en de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie. Van Musk tot Microsoft en van Ahold tot ASML. Wij vertellen je wat beleggers bezighoudt, wie de markten in beweging zet en wat dat betekent voor jouw beleggingsportefeuille.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Thinking about attending the European Film Market (EFM) in Berlin? In this episode, I break down how EFM compares to Cannes and AFM, why it's considered the most professional film market, and why filmmakers with finished projects and real credits get the most value from it. If you want smarter film distribution and market strategy, this one's for you.

David Lynch's Eraserhead is another film that is great not just because what it's about but how it was made. Lynch worked on this for five years through AFM school, a divorce and becoming a parent. Made very low budget and featuring a cast of unknowns this film went on to become a cult classic and a staple of independent film!
