The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: The UK Budget & market nervousness over the banks
Russ Mould of A JBell thinks Jeremy Hunt delivering the Budget did his best with a weak hand. Essentially, there is no money when the national interest bill is £100bn. Market nervousness about contagion from SVB and Credit Suisse Russ puts down to money being cheap for far too long. It has meant that too many people have done risky, silly things. Nervous investors should remember the basics, sticking to disciplined companies with sound management. He also wonders if 5% is the new 17%.

The Business of Film: Scream VI, 65 & The Oscars
James Cameron-Wilson discusses the UK box office numbers with Simon Rose, with total take down 5% despite two big new films. Scream VI takes the #1 slot but James found it boring, unpleasant and full of unbelievable characters. Sci-fi thriller 65, starring Adam Driver, slips in at #3 ("irritating and dull"). James made a plea for discerning cinemagoers to go to charming romcom What's Love Got To Do With It (#7) while they still have the chance. He rounds up the podcast with a discussion of the Oscars, both the results and the ceremony itself.

Gadgets & Gizmos: Bing hallucinating, a paint revolution, an eternal battery & streaming classical music
Steve Caplin tells Simon Rose of the latest tech innovations. A startup has worked out how to use data processing centres to heat swimming pools which cool the PCs in return. Bing's latest GPT upgrade has many improvements, but still hallucinates and makes things up. There's a revolution in the world of paint, better protection for windswept buildings, a keyboard hand heater, spirally-constructed wind turbines and Apple moving into the world of streamed classical music.

The Bigger Picture: The Budget, small boats legislation and the BBC & Gary Lineker
Political commentator Mike Indian discusses Jeremy Hunt's Budget with Simon Rose, though he considers it more a Sunak Budget than a Hunt Budget. With little not already briefed beforehand, he feels the most important intervention for most people was the extension of free childcare. He found nothing in it, though, to galvanise the UK economy or slow Britain's comparative decline. He also remarks on the Illegal Immigration Bill, with neither main party admitting how dependent the UK is on migrant workers. Lastly, he looks at what he considers the "farcical situation" between the BBC and football pundit Gary Lineker.

Thought for the Week: Underlying Principles for Taxation

Thought for the Week

Thought for the Week: Underlying Principles for Taxation
For the past 250 years, starting with Adam Smith, there have been valiant attempts to set out principles for taxation: but they have been principally domestic, and with no attempt to address inter-generational rebalancing. Without specific provisions requiring hypothecation of inheritance levies it's hard to see how disadvantaged young people can be empowered with resources and life skills so that all may share in future wealth creation. Don't expect change in this week's Budget, but the Treasury Select Committee should look again at the principles they established over ten years ago.

This Is Money: Can you trust the state pension system as more blunders emerge?
You'd like to imagine that when it came to the state pension, you'd be dealing with a more robust system than the ones that deliver the average customer service nightmare. Savers could be forgive for questioning whether that was the case after a string of recent blunders. First we had the underpaid women's state pensions scandal, now we have the pension top-ups system creaking at the seams, at the same time as it turns out there may be a serious problem with the records of those who have received Universal Credit. The common thread running through exposing these problems has been This is Money's pension and investing editor Tanya Jefferies and retirement columnist Steve Webb. They have worked tirelessly to help those affected and bring these issues to light. This week, we had a state pension double header of news with an admission of the problems over Universal Credit and the Government finally extending the deadline for boosting state pension via top-ups. Tanya talks us through the problems and discusses what they mean for people, with Georgie Frost and Simon Lambert. Also, the team talk about why you should put your savings in a cash ISA, where to find the best ones and why transfers might be the most important thing you can do. Plus, who are the Dividend Heroes, what have they got to do with the Rolling Stones and what can we learn from them on long-term investing? And finally, rising interest rates have severely hampered the amount of mortgage a monthly payment can buy, so, could you afford your home now?
