S06E07: Mike Ledwidge. First to the kill, second interview

Loading player...
I last chatted to Mike Ledwidge in January 2022. Since then a lot has changed in the markets and in his personal life. He has recently become a proud father to a baby boy, and he’s moved to London in the past year, from Cape Town. The market has also changed a lot in that time. When we last spoke in January 2022, the S&P500 was at its all-time high. It’s been in a general bear trend since then. In this interview, I catch up with Mike and discuss how the past year has treated him, and how he has adapted his trading routine to fit in with family life and different macro-economic conditions.
