Show Notes
The London Stock Exchange now makes most of its money selling data, and only a small percentage listing stocks. FT digital markets correspondent Nikou Asgari joins Katie Martin to ask what that tells us about global markets, data and the future of London as a finance hub. Also we go short the cryptocurrency BNB and long UK chancellors who don’t blow up the markets.
