The Business Of Film

The Business of Film: The Substance, Prima Facie, Michael Powell & Rebel Ridge
Box office is down 27%, says James Cameron-Wilson with new entry The Substance, a feminist body horror starring Demi Moore, entering only at #3. Although #12, Jodie Comer's Prima Facie has now taken £7.6m, the highest ever for an event movie and it is still screening. James waxed lyrical about the extras-laden Blu-Ray Michael Powell: Early Works, giving umpteen insights into the development of one of the UK's greatest directors. He was also positive about Netflix's Rebel Ridge, a thriller about corruption and racism in America's South with Aaron Pierre and Don Johnson, even if the drama ebbs away when it begins to resemble First Blood.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: US interest rates and UK market prospects
Russ Mould of A J Bell discusses the Fed cutting rates by half a percentage point – rather high for the start of a cycle – and China's latest attempt at stimulus. In the UK, cyclical sectors are leading the way and the market benefits from being lower-rated and having more political stability, at least more than the US. The FTSE-350 also has an effective yield of 7.5%. Financial markets were not keen on Brexit but the pound is now almost back to pre-Brexit levels against the dollar, which will help suppress inflation, even if it crimps earnings and dividends.

Thought for the Week

Thought for the Week: How shifting priorities risk our future
In our fast-moving world, priorities are often distracted: issues which require long-term focus often lose out as a result. Unscrupulous marketeers are well aware of this, and the New Weather Institute has published a report showing how fossil fuel giants are using sport sponsorship in order to divert our attention from the need to address climate change.

The Hypnotist: Quietening The Inner Voice of Compulsive Eating

The Hypnotist: Quietening The Inner Voice of Compulsive Eating
Compulsion is very different from habit: there's an internal dialogue driving that action, so that it feels essential in order to avoid some unpleasant consequence. It's not just eating, although that is the subject of this episode — it can apply to anything you feel you have to do, such as repetitively checking things or washing hands. It's therefore closely related to OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) and arguably a form of superstition, which is thought to affect between 1% and 4% of people. If this is something you experience, Adam Cox helps to break those patterns of inner dialogue to provide you with freedom of choice.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: IP Group & Discoverie
Neil Shah of Edison Group says that tech-focussed, early-stage venture capital company IP Group is worth taking a look at. With a market cap of £460m, some of the businesses it invested in are now quoted and, while the interim results reflected a difficult period, things are now improving. With some facinating things in the portfolio, the long-duration investor IP is at a 56% discount to net asset value. Discoverie creates and sources electronic designs and components and has just moved into security. It's an attractive long-term business with high returns yet is at a 27% discount to its peers. More info is on the Edison website (https://www.edisongroup.com/).
