The global economy is very different to what it was a year ago, which means the stock market is too. On this week's episode, we're chatting with a friend (aka Sophie's housemate) who has been investing for around a year now, about what she's been hearing about how to invest at a time like this. We discuss different companies and industries that we think might outperform in the current market and add them to our hypothetical portfolio.

We're excited to have partnered with the ASX to play the ASX Sharemarket Game. The game gives you an opportunity to learn about investing in the share market, without needing to put real money on the line. To join the Equity Mates league, go to the ASX portal, join the league under the 'Resources' menu, use the League ID - 34788 and Password - EMMedia9.

Here you have the Game Rules. For ASX's FAQ please find this Resource List 

Keep track of Sophie and Maddy between the episodes on Instagram, or on TikTok, and come and be part of the conversation on Facebook with our You’re In Good Company Discussion Group.
