Russia, the stockmarket melt-up, and UK house prices
Merryn Somerset Webb and John Stepek discuss MoneyWeek issue 878, plus the other burning issues of the week. Topics covered include the perils and rewards of investing in Russia; wage increases, inflation and the economic cycle; corporate governance and why companies should behave better; the future of shareholder capitalism and the change in people's relationship with their money; the coming stockmarket "melt-up"; house prices and, inevitably, bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
