You might think you can fool the financial markets — this episode shows that you usually can't. The Liz Truss era, unpacked.

Cash Lads — Episode 6

The Cash Lads revisit the short-lived Liz Truss era and the now-iconic lettuce that outlasted her. You might think you can fool the financial markets but this episode shows that you usually can’t. They break down how her government’s economic plans rattled financial markets, why confidence matters, and what this whirlwind moment teaches us about the power — and ruthlessness — of global finance.

Cash Lads is co-hosted by Paul Molloy (BoxCleverTax) and Marcus Doyle (Clear Financial). This podcast does not constitute financial or tax advice.
