RISK WARNING: should you invest, the value of your investment may rise or fall and your capital is at risk. Before investing, your individual circumstances should be assessed. Consider taking independent financial advice. The Motley Fool believes in building wealth through long-term investing and so we do not promote or encourage high-risk activities including day trading, CFDs, spread betting, cryptocurrencies, and forex. Where we promote an affiliate partner’s brokerage products, these are focused on the trading of readily releasable securities.

Owain Bennallack talks investing with Mark Rogers – our youngest and keenest team member at the Motley Fool – and with Stuart Watson, one of our most experienced. All that worldly wisdom comes in handy as the guys debate that graveyard of new investor enthusiasms, IPOs, also known as flotations, as well as political risk and the recent sell-off in the emerging markets. Finally they debate the prospects for Victrex, Ashmore and Persimmon.
