Trade Ideas

Long-dated UK gilts attractive for tax-free gains
Clients are buying long-dated UK gilts (2056, 2061) because yields to maturity are tempting at mid-fives, and low-coupon long-dated bonds offer capital gains tax-free returns. Despite volatility, the gradual pull to par and tax advantage make them attractive for investors.
Rene Haas CEO, Arm 28:57
Arm's AI-driven growth is strong and accelerating
Arm is well on track to hit $15 billion revenue target by the end of the decade, driven by strong demand for AI and power-efficient technology. PC market share could reach 50% by end of decade, and the new server chip business is responding to customer demand. Power efficiency and CPU demand for agentic AI are key growth drivers.
