Find out on this week’s PlayingFTSE Show!</p><p><br></p><p>Contrasting fortunes for the Steves this week. Steve D has outperformed and Steve W has missed out – but the game has a long way to run yet for both our investors. </p><p><br></p><p>Alphabet’s latest earnings report was incredibly impressive, but the stock market has largely shrugged it off. Why?</p><p><br></p><p>Could it be because the firm is losing antitrust cases and investors are worried about a potential breakup? Steve D has been looking for ancient wisdom to figure out what to do.</p><p><br></p><p>We don’t talk about Tesla often, but Steve W thinks things have got interesting recently. Thet latest earnings were terrible, but that’s not it.</p><p><br></p><p>It looks like Elon Musk might have managed to clear the way for regulatory approval for robotaxis. So could this be the key moment?</p><p><br></p><p>Intel has been outperforming expectations recently. But it’s been doing it with flat sales and negative earnings per share. </p><p><br></p><p>Can the new CEO turn things around and get the foundry business selling to a company not called Intel? That’s probably the big question… but also: what’s Pat Gelsinger up to?</p><p><br></p><p>Steve W has been into DCC shares recently. But it’s just sold its healthcare business for less than analysts had been hoping for it to.</p><p><br></p><p>The stock is down as a result, but is there a bigger lesson for investors? Admiral and WH Smith have also struggled to get good prices for divestitures recently…</p><p><br></p><p>Tariffs and falling oil prices have been making life difficult for Enphase recently. But could it be a good time to consider buying the stock?</p><p><br></p><p>The situation is dynamic and volatile and that makes things hard for the company. That, though, might mean things could start getting a lot better very quickly.</p><p><br></p><p>Only on this week’s PlayingFTSE Podcast!</p><p><br></p><p>► Support the show:</p><p><br></p><p>Appreciate the show and want to offer your support?
