About this episode

In our latest podcast episode, I talk to AmplifyME co-founder Piers Curran on three major topics:

1 - UK house prices have fallen at the fastest rate since 2009. How bad will it get and why Denmark might have the solution to Britain's broken housing market

2 - UBS posted the biggest-ever quarterly profit in banking history this week, so how exactly did they pull it off?

3 - Is the US labour market starting to show some cracks and why this is actually good news for the stock market!
