Bond comeback: What do rising rates mean for income investment?

And if you can get a bigger income from bonds, maybe investing in income shares is becoming less attractive. So to find out more about the prospects for income investing in Europe, Share Radio's Ed Bowsher spoke to Will James, Manager of the Standard Life European Equity Income Fund.

When will we see a US interest rate rise? Colin Cieszynski discusses with Matt Cox
A US interest rate rise could come "relatively soon" according to Federal Reserve Chair, Janet Yellen. Speaking to the Joint Economic Committee, Yellen signalled she was confident that jobs data and inflation would continue to support plans for a rate rise, with some analysts expecting one as soon as December. But is this the right time, so soon after the US election and with President-elect Trump's policies still uncertain? Matt Cox spoke to Colin Cieszynski, Chief Market Analyst at CMC Markets Toronto, to find out more.
