What’s got more flavour than an Oxo cube? Find out on this week’s PlayingFTSE Show!



It’s been a dreadful week for both Steves in the stock market. Steve W’s losses are three times greater than the FTSE 100 or the S&P 500. And Steve D’s are worse!



Nvidia shares have done pretty well this year, but not as well as over 200 other S&P 500 stocks. That’s despite the latest results continuing to be nothing short of stellar.



Steve W thinks it’s time to start asking a different question. What’s the company’s strategy for after the data centre buildout and can it cope with the competition?



Steve D has a new UK stock to take a look at – Frontier Developments. It’s a video games business, think managing theme parks, F1 teams, and zoos.



The interesting assets are the firm’s licenses. With Warhammer 40,000 on board and a new Disney title on the way, could this be an under-the-radar stock to buy?



Rosebank Industries is a FTSE 250 name that James Fox – one of our previous guests – likes a lot. And it’s in a very familiar type of industry for this show.



Buying, improving, and selling is a business model that we’ve seen a lot. But is this company more like QXO, 3i, or Avingtrans?
