With rate hikes looming, are the glory days of income investing over?

The Weeks Update: Is Trump advocating isolationism?

The Weeks Update: Is Trump advocating isolationism?
With the stroke of a pen, just five days into his first week at the Oval Office, Donald Trump temporarily banned citizens of 7 Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States. The President’s ‘extreme vetting’ has been met with outrage on both sides of the Atlantic, decried as ‘unacceptable’ in Germany and ‘divisive’ in the UK. In response, Mr. Trump has insisted the ban is about ‘Making America Safe Again’ - not religion. International condemnation aside, the travel ban has given another glimpse of what lies ahead for the Middle East in the Trump era. An inaugural pledge to put America First, to ensure “every decision … on immigration, on foreign affairs, will be made to benefit ... American families", has been read by many as Trump turning his back on the region. But with gains from the Arab Spring unconsolidated, nuclear ambitions only temporarily tempered, and Syria obliterated by civil war, there are fears an American retreat may be unwise. What will a Donald Trump Presidency mean for the Middle East? How will a more hesitant US abroad affect the region? I’m now joined by Gilbert Achcar, Professor of Politics at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, and Share Radio’s economics commentator Professor John Weeks.

Some analysts are concerned that Snap's culture of secrecy could mean bad news for investors... or perhaps the IPO will cause problems for Snap's business model. Matt Cox looked into the company's culture of secrecy and the impact it could have.

It follows warnings from the International Monetary Fund that its debt is on an unsustainable path. The IMF says that compromises with creditors need to be made within 3 weeks.

Gibraltar rocked by Brexit
As the UK negotiates its way to a Brexit resolution, there are concerns in the overseas territory of Gibraltar about what the eventual deal will mean for them. The tiny territory is perched on the edge of Spain and depends on around 12,000 people crossing the border daily to work in its largely service-based economy. So how can the UK negotiate a deal without ceding the territory to Spain? Share Radio's Peta Fuller spoke to two of the people behind a paper on the issue, Jonathan Lis from British Influence and Joe Carberry from Open Britain, and started by asking Mr Carberry how the current relationship works.
