The brand no one saw coming back.

🌟 WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE 🌟 Sophie’s away this week, so Vic is joined by the brilliant India Leishman, and honestly, she’s making a very convincing case for a permanent seat at the mic. Together they tackle the very un-sexy reality of rising oil prices and what that could mean for flights, groceries, inflation, and basically the cost of existing, before getting into Gap’s unexpected comeback story, the Jo Malone name-drama that sounds too wild to be true, and why Unilever seems to be betting big on beauty and wellness over your pantry staples. There’s also a helpful breakdown of stagflation for anyone who’s heard the word and nodded politely, plus some solid career advice for getting into finance. A slightly chaotic, very informative catch-up on what’s moving markets right now, and what it might mean for you. WTF does that mean? A guide to all the jargony bits: Stagflation – Slow economy + rising prices. Not a fun combo. Central Bank – Sets interest rates. Runs the money system. Interest Rates – Cost of borrowing. Higher = more expensive. Inflation – Prices go up, your money goes less far. Reporting Season – When companies reveal their results. Revenue – Money a company makes before costs. Share Price – What one share in a company costs. Stock Market – Where shares are bought and sold. Diversification – Spreading your money across investments. Spin-off – A company splitting off part of its business. Non-compete – Stops you starting a similar business. Renewable Energy – Energy that won’t run out (like wind/solar).
