Saxo Chief Macro Strategist John Hardy joins this weekâs Merryn Talks Money to discuss the list, which includes Nvidia ballooning to twice the value of Apple and Donald Trump crushing the US dollar.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this weekâs personal finance edition of Merryn Talks Money, Merryn John discuss strategies for managing your inheritance.
Millennial listener Kewin has a conundrum. Heâs inherited money and is expecting more in the future. But rather than leaving it in a savings account or buying Bitcoin, he wants to put the money to work. Heâs seen financial advice on TikTok suggesting he should put his assets into a global tracker, but Kewin also wants to explore the idea of using an active manager.
Webb and Stepek offer up some advice that might help inform Kewinâs decision. They touch on pension maximization, risk appetite, active vs. passive investing, mortgage paydowns and Warren Buffettâs philosophy on succession planning.

In this limited series, Odd Lots explains some of the thorniest issues facing the US economy through the medium of ⊠chicken.

So why has the chicken industry evolved in the way that it has? Whatâs been driving the price increases in eggs and meat? And what does it all say about things like inflation, the labor market and the nature of American capitalism?
