'Wealth of Experience' podcast

Season 1, Episode 5

Peter and I analyse, explain and have some fun talking about financial markets, stocks, products, trends and government policies. And we throw in something making us grumpy.

Each fortnightly episode covers highlights in both Firstlinks and Your Money Weekly, and guests from the market. This week covers buybacks, stock updates, your retirement views and an interview with Emma Fisher of Airlie Funds Management. 

The podcast is also available via our dedicated website page, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and BuzzSprout.

Please share with friends and colleagues, and a favourable rating would help spread the word. We welcome questions and suggestions at firstlinks@morningstar.com.

Here are some comments so far, thanks:
