And the last week hasn't been a particularly good one for either Steve.Steve W has finally managed to buy a European stock for his portfolio. It's LVMH, which has actually done quite well over the last three months or so. Elsewhere, there are a couple of new UK additions, one from the FTSE 100 and one from the FTSE 250. But which stock is he thinking about selling in the next three months?Steve D has graduated a couple of stocks up to his main portfolio from the capital incinerator. But he's been reducing his stake in Walt Disney recently. The big buy in the last quarter has been Bloomsbury. But there are also big additions to the likes of Ashtead Technology to bump up the UK exposure.The Britbox has fared pretty badly over the last three months. And it's the usual suspects letting the side down, with Greggs continuing to struggle and Diageo doing badly.The Eurobox has had a reasonable three months, but nothing worth paying fees for. Steve W thinks it's partly due to missing a big boost in defence spending. Only on this week's PlayingFTSE Podcast!► Get a free share!This show is sponsored by Trading 212!

Why do so many workplaces run on bullshit processes and procedures?  And how might Behavioural Science help resolve them?Episode SummaryIn this episode, I sit down with author, speaker and advisor James Healy to explore his book BS at Work — and the everyday nonsense we all recognise inside organisations.James argues that while behavioural science has transformed public policy and consumer behaviour, workplaces have lagged behind. We dig into why leaders keep choosing rituals over results, why nobody seems to ask “does this actually work?”, and how our search for simple answers can make complex systems worse.I ask James to unpack some of his favourite stories, including the strange origins of the DISC personality test — created by Wonder Woman's inventor, complete with “dominance” and “submission” baked in — and the utterly self-parodying experience he had with e-learning about not cheating on e-learning.

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Haus of Lucy (@HouseOfLucy) Haus of Lucy is a contemporary multimedia artist based in Sussex, celebrated for her unique fusion of traditional art with modern culture, often delivered with a satirical twist. With a background in magazine design, she made the leap to full-time artistry in 2019 following a high-profile commission for the Adidas flagship store in London. This key opportunity proved transformative, sparking collaborations with brands including Footlocker, Lazy Oaf, Primark, and Greggs. Her work cleverly disrupts classical conventions by inserting unexpected, often humorous elements into familiar scenes. A 15th-century landscape may feature an EasyJet aircraft, or a porcelain tureen might be repurposed as a KFC gravy boat.These imaginative juxtapositions invite viewers to reconsider the relationship between fine art and contemporary consumer culture. In addition to her prints, Lucy reimagines discarded ceramic figurines, turning them into provocative modern characters—like a demure Victorian lady armed with a chainsaw or a cherubic baby dabbling in the dark web. These pieces offer wry social commentary while preserving the nostalgic charm of vintage ornamentation.Working from her Brighton studio, Haus of Lucy continues to intrigue and amuse with work that is both visually striking and intellectually playful.

It's an interview with the UK's leading independent stock picker!Dr. James Fox writes at GuruFocus and Fool UK. And he's here to talk with Steve W about stocks, shares, and investing. James tells us about taking control of his finances from an advisor at the age of 18 and reveals what the first stock he ever bought was. It's not one you might guess.He also shares a bit about what type of investor he sees himself as and what he does when he's not investing. Anyone for a sumac-based soft drink?Finding stocks to buy is one of the most important things for investors. So how does the best in the business go about it? James talks Steve W through his process and the key metric he uses to screen for investment ideas. It's not one we talk about much, but it has a good pedigree.Building a diversified portfolio is the ambition of a lot of long-term investors. But it's a bit different for someone who also owns their own drinks business.James talks through the balance of his pension in terms of UK and US stocks. And he also shares his views on the attractiveness of bonds at the moment.We don't talk much about Pinterest on our show, but James thinks it's a stock listeners should know about. And he's here to give us a run-through on why.It's growing impressively and trades at a reasonable P/E multiple. But is a heavy skew towards the US in terms of revenues a risk or an opportunity?We couldn't have the UK's leading independent stock picker on and not get his views on some stocks. And we've got quite the lineup to get through. The big question, though, is what James thinks about Greggs.

The first is that the programme for PR Masterclass: AI in PR is now complete. The PR Masterclass series are hybrid events so you can attend either in person or virtually.Check out the microsite PRMasterclasses.com for all the details including the speaker line-up.The other vital bit of information is that The Creative Moment Awards are now open for entries. You can see all the categories for 2025 at the microsite creativemomentawards.co.The final entry deadline is Friday 20th June.Here's a summary of Aarti, Don and Ben's discussion:Winning Campaign Case StudyHope&Glory, CALM & adam&eveDDB - Missed BirthdaysCALM's “Missed Birthdays” was a spectacular installation designed to raise awareness of suicide. Each of the 6,292 balloons marked the birthday a young person missed because they died by suicide. It drove 220 pieces of coverage, delivering over 350 million Opportunities to See through editorial coverage. 23,000 people shared the installation on their social channels. Most of all, the installation prompted 29,500 visits to the CALM C.A.R.E. Kit microsite delivering vital prevention information and advice.The PRmoment Award judges said: “Crisp and clear articulation of what you did, why you did it and what your campaign generated - both in terms of coverage but also in behaviour shift.” Winning Campaign Case StudyNigella meets GreggsGreggs is known for its playful tone of voice and position within British culture. Its biggest challenge at Christmas is to launch its festive menu in a disruptive way (when media is saturated with high-budget launches). Step forward culinary queen Nigella. The resulting campaign generated over 1,520 pieces of coverage from start-to-finish. The “ad” was hailed a triumph and Greggs reported that Q4 like-for-like sales rose 2.5%.The PRmoment Award judges said: “A strong, unexpected idea and execution with great post-campaign data, showing the true impact of PR when done well.”Winning Campaign Case Study:The V&A - If You're Into It, It's In the V&AThe V&A has over 2.27m objects in its collection. There's something for everybody so “if you're into it, it's in the V&A”. Hope&Glory offered nine people the opportunity to advise the V&A about its collections – enhancing its understanding of modern culture. The campaign reached 87% of the core audience and, of those exposed to the campaign, 76% said the activity made them think more positively about the V&A brand. Amongst non-V&A visitors, 40% said the activity made them think it was more relevant to them.The PRmoment Award judges said: “Huge results for a modest budget. Tapped into culture. This is gold standard”

Find out on this week's PlayingFTSE Show!Both Steves have underperformed the S&P 500 this week. But Steve D has made a move to correct this and Steve W has a very specific reason why. Last week, Steve W said Greggs shares would go up. And they did, but they're still well below where they were at the start of the year. Management is taking credit for it, but is it actually just to do with the good weather we've been having lately? Or is there something more exciting going on?There are exciting things going on at Alphabet. Google's parent company isn't just sitting around waiting for lawsuits – it's getting on the case with AI. Gemini's becoming a PA, Astra can see down your camera, and our thumbnail software is getting a boost. And then there's Waymo with an actual robotaxi network…Diploma is a FTSE 100 stock that we've had an eye on for a long time. And it's up after the most recent results, which are pretty good illustration of why. Everything is up. Organic revenue growth is strong, profits are well up, and the latest acquisitions are integrating nicely – what else is there to want from an investment?Bloomsbury is a recent addition to the FTSE 250. But it's results for the 2024-25 year leave a bit to be desired and the stock is down as a result. There's no way a decline in profits is a positive thing, but with no Sarah J.

Find out in this week's PlayingFTSE Show!This show was recorded on March 30th. Fortunately, not much happened in the last week or so…It's time to look back at what we've bought over the last three months and how our portfolios have fared. Steve D's up first.There are some obvious discounts in some of the REITs Steve owns and Amazon is looking like it's come down a lot. So is the plan to go buying on the latest dip?Steve W has been diving into AIM stocks in the last three months. So far, that hasn't been a success, but it's still early days for those particular investments.New positions in Celebrus and Tristel stand out alongside some other less imaginative investments. But what's the plan for the next three months?Steve D has been busy on the selling side as well. Pfizer and Diageo have gone entirely and Progyny and Disney have been reduced after some well-timed buys.It's surprising how much some big and well-established firms have been struggling lately. But Rightmove has also made its way out of Steve D's portfolio for a different reason.Unimaginatively, Steve W has made three sales in the last three months. One was Citigroup (which looks brilliant) and another was Dowlais, which looks… ok.The other one was Primary Health Properties and that looks like a mistake. The stock is about where it was when Steve sold it, but he's made a bit of a mess of his calculations… Around three months ago, we started a portfolio of UK stocks and a portfolio of European shares. And the European investments have made a decent start. There have been some outstanding performances, especially from the likes of Carl Zeiss Meditec. But which of the Steves has been contributing more?With the UK shares portfolio, there's a familiar theme. Barclays, NatWest, and Admiral lead the way after a strong first quarter for financials stocks. Bringing up the rear is Greggs – obviously – which has had a terrible 2025 to date. But what else has been faltering along with the FTSE 100 food chain?Only on this week's PlayingFTSE Podcast! ► Support the show:Appreciate the show and want to offer your support?

In this episode of Dividend Talk, we dive into the world of dividend-focused ETFs available to European investors. In the News of the Week, we explore the recent sharp decline in Greggs' share price following its trading update, despite record sales. Is this an opportunity to buy, or should investors look elsewhere? The Listener Questions segment tackles a range of intriguing topics: How to prioritise investments when building a dividend portfolio. Why many REITs show negative ROIC vs WACC differences. Expectations for organic growth in diversified dividend portfolios. A thought experiment involving a €50,000 inheritance and turnaround companies. Finally, we wrap up with stock-specific discussions, including Schneider Electric, PepsiCo, and Eaton, while addressing questions on private equity, T. Rowe Price, and Sonoco Products.
