Backbench Tory MPs are set to water down protections for renters and increase rights for landlords, the BBC reports. It’s unclear exactly what’s being watered down, but it’s though Conservative MPs are concerned that the reforms could cause landlords to sell up, exacerbating the UK’s issue of a lack of rental supply. The government has previously committed to banning Section 21 ‘no fault’ evictions, a promise that’s now five years old. The UK’s broken court system is badly in need of reform, to make Section 8 evictions – where you have to provide a reason to evict a tenant –…

Apart from watching instructional YouTube videos, playing New York Times word games on our phones and streaming a show over spotty Wi-Fi in the evening, my wife and I are not big techies. That’s why I was surprised when she hinted that she’d like a virtual reality (VR) headset for Christmas. “I’ve heard it’s really good exercise,” she said. “Mmmm hmmm,” I replied skeptically, but the message had been received, and I surprised her with one under the tree.

Yet the Strategic Organising Centre (SOC), a coalition of North American workers groups, is mounting the sort of campaign normally associated with hedge funds. The group’s target is Starbucks, a coffee-shop chain with a market capitalisation of $107bn. Whereas traditional activist investors take a chunk of a company and pressure its management to change strategy, hoping to gain from a bump in the share price, the SOC owns a mere $16,000-worth of…

SweetBunFactory You’d think that with all this AI hype, semi stocks broadly would be doing well. This of course until you dig deeper and realize how much of this narrative is being driven by just one stock (Nvidia, my fav!). Semiconductor stocks outside of Nvidia (NVDA) really haven’t done all that much since 2021, but perhaps there will be a rotation that favors them more broadly. If that’s the case, the SPDR S&P Semiconductor ETF (NYSEARCA:XSD) is one way to play it. XSD is an investment fund that aims to replicate the performance of the S&P Semiconductor Select Industry Index.…
