We've Accelerated Our Transition to a Higher Margin Business: Nigel Pocklington, CEO of Good Energy #GOOD  In this interview Nigel Pocklington, CEO, Good Energy Group who describes how they are accelerating their transition to a higher margin business.  He also discusses how they are in a great position, with £33m of net cash, to take advantage of the fragmented solar market in the UK.  This cash means they have an enterprise value of just £10m (market cap £46m). Given that they are forecast to generate a net profit of £4.7m this year means they are on an EV / EBITDA of just 2.  Combine this with the inevitable march towards renewable energy, especially with the Labour government embracing this transition and it puts Good Energy in a very strong position.  Brokers have a 500p target and the share price currently sits at 253p.

Another Global Sell Off But Is this an Opportunity?  Macro, Micro News for Monday 5th August 2024 A daily podcast covering the Macro & Micro News that's relevant to the UK FTSE 100 DOWN 2% FTSE 250 DOWN 3% FTSE SMALL CAP 2% AIM ALL SHARE 2% BITCOIN DOWN 10% JAPAN’S NIKKEI DOWN 10% NASDAQ DOWN  Stock indices around the world have slumped after weak manufacturing and employment data in the US raising concerns that the US economy may be on its way to recession. This has been compounded by the Japan central bank raising their interest rates meaning an exaggerated sell off there too. This also affects the Yen carry trade. The Fed again has been late to the party. They were late raising interest rates and raised them too quickly and now are late reducing them and now it’s looking like they are going to have to reduce them faster than expected.  Good News The markets are now pricing in five Federal Reserve interest rate cuts this year. Five is a massive change. This has gone up from just two forecasted rate cuts, last week. There’s also rumours an emergency FED rate cut could happen this week.

MACRO & MICRO - WEDNESDAY 31ST JULY 2024 A daily podcast covering UK Macro & Micro News To receive my weekly tips visit www.sharepickers.com/tips MACRO NEWS "I think we will have to increase taxes in the Budget," Rachel Reeves told the News Agents podcast. She was responding to a question about raising money following her claim on Monday that the previous government left a £22bn "hole" in the public finances. Labour said repeatedly during the election campaign there would be no tax rises on "working people", but the Conservatives had insisted Labour would increase them. Ms Reeves reiterated that the government would not raise VAT, national insurance or income tax, as promised in Labour's manifesto, but she did not rule out increasing inheritance tax, capital gains tax or pension reform. £9BN OF THAT £22BN WAS THE WAGE INCREASES SHE AWARDED TO PUBLIC SECTOR WORKERS! In the last financial year, to March 2024, the government borrowed £122.1bn.  The most recent monthly figures show that borrowing was £14.5bn in June , £3.2bn less than in the same month last year.  The national debt is currently about £2.7 trillion. Business confidence rebounded sharply in July, a survey revealed, as firms felt a renewed sense of optimism about the UK’s economic prospects. Overall business confidence jumped by nine points to 50 per cent this month, according to Lloyds’ Business Barometer. The rebound in confidence during July brought business confidence back up to May’s level, which was the highest level since before the Brexit referendum. Firms reported a much stronger outlook for their trading prospects, with 62% of businesses reporting stronger activity, up from 53 per cent in June. Wider economic optimism, meanwhile, rebounded with 62% of respondents feeling more confident about the economy’s prospects. This was up from 55%. The government is set to significantly raise the budget for this year's renewable energy auction, following calls from industry for more support. Energy Secretary Ed Miliband will announce today that the budget will be increased to £1.5bn, up by £500m from last year. The majority of the funding will be available to develop offshore wind power, which the Labour government says it wants to quadruple by 2030.

Ian James CEO of Silverbullet Data Services #SBDS says Google's decision not to deprecate the third party cookie is Positive for their Business.  Ian James says: “What Google came out with today is saying is they're not going to deprecate the cookie. They're going to take a different route to providing privacy safe browsing environments, and their suggestion is that they will look to do pretty similarly, actually, an easy comparable is what Apple have already done.  Apple has set the bar very high; they go as far as to say that privacy is a fundamental human right. Whenever you're on safari, which is Apple's browser, or in the Apple ecosystem on your mobile device, then by proxy by design, then you have to consent to be tracked. Therefore, Apple has already done that. As you said, there are other browsers in the market like Mozilla and Firefox, and so forth, so more than half the market now pretty predominantly would say that cookies are deprecated.  So Google's decision today is certainly a positive one for Silverbullet in the sense that they will give back that choice to consumers, but at a browser level. So if you don't want to be tracked on a website that will happen now at the Browser level, not at the website level. That's their suggestion.  That's what they've told us today in the news. That means that Google will effectively be falling in line with the kind of privacy standards that Apple already deployed, and a large part of the industry. So that's a very positive move forward for Silverbullet. Given the fact that we are all about consented data, all about 1st party data data. That's about the customer. Why? Because that's what our clients want to use to get better marketing return on investment”.
