The sharp stock market sell-off earlier this year served as a reminder that volatility is par for the course in investing. During such periods, defensive growth businesses are expected to hold up better than those that are more cyclical and sensitive to economic cycles. In this episode, Kyle speaks to James Thomson, lead manager of Rathbone Global Opportunities fund. Part of the fund is devoted to recession-resistant businesses, including companies that are not as closely linked to the economic cycle, and those where demand is more predictable. James explains what he looks for in ‘weather-proof businesses’ and shares stock examples.

Most investors will have a sizeable weighting to the US stock market, particularly those who own global index funds or ETFs, which have weightings of around 70% to US companies. Some active global fund managers go against the crowd by holding less in the US, including James Harries of STS Global Income & Growth Trust. James explains why over a quarter of the portfolios invested in UK shares, and runs through changes made to the investment trust during the stock market sell-off in April triggered by US President Donald Trump’s tariff policies.

For income-seeking investors, the UK stock market has a rich dividend heritage. However, an important thing to bear in mind is the highly concentrated nature of UK dividends. In 2024, figures from Computershare show that the top 15 dividend stocks accounted for 59% of all UK dividend payments.
To discuss the issue of concentration risk for income-seeking investors backing the UK market, Kyle is joined by Eric Moore, manager of Slater Income fund. Moore explains how he navigates this income risk, and why he adopts a total return approach to investing in dividend-paying companies.
