This month, James and Giles discuss global equity trends for June which delivered some surprises considering recent geopolitical tensions and tariff uncertainty (1:10). Our experts consider potential rate cuts from the Fed later this year, after we saw subdued inflation and a weakening dollar in the US in June (2:30). 
 
James and Giles shift their focus to the impact – or lack thereof – of a turbulent Middle East upon global markets (5:06). Markets largely shrugged off the brief Israel-Iran conflict we saw in June, with oil prices spiking temporarily but stabilising following a ceasefire brokered by the US. 
 
Looking at home shores, we dive into the UK government’s Spending Review which revealed modest increases for health, education and defence, but cuts elsewhere (6:55) and look ahead to what might happen in the Autumn budget later this year.
 
Finally, Jon and James discuss the growing interest in private market assets and explore historical performance, growing accessibility for investors, and the impact of changing market conditions on this sector (9:50).
