► Episode Notes:

How did Steve W get on shorting Trump Media & Technology Group? Find out on this week’s PlayingFTSE Show! The big news from this week is the US election. But while that’s been moving markets, there have been some interesting moves from individual stocks doing their own thing as well. The FTSE 100 fell and the S&P 500 climbed. And – as usual – the Steves managed somewhere in between. There’s a lot to get through in quickfire news this week. Steve W has two FTSE 100 stocks that he’s starting to rethink his views on from the last month or so. Steve D has been looking at Dutch Brothers, Toast, and Adyen. All three are growing, but which does the stock market like the best? Alexander wept when we had no more worlds left to conquer. But Mastercard somehow still has some more – the company’s slogan used to be ‘accepted everywhere’ but it still isn’t. That’s a good thing, though, since it means there’s more to come in terms of growth. So will either Steve or Steve finally do the decent thing and buy the stock? Palantir is a stock that we’ve stoically avoided on the show. No longer – Steve W thinks the company has got to the point where it has become too interesting for him to ignore. The business has moved on from scoring government contracts and started on corporate America. But Steve D is still not quite sure what the business actually does… Wise isn’t in the FTSE 100 or the FTSE 250, but it’s one investors should have on their radars. The payment company is growing, making more money, and widening its moat. Despite this, the stock is still well down from where it was at IPO. So is Steve D – who owns it – looking to add to his position, or even double it? Only on this week’s PlayingFTSE Podcast!
