CURRENT AFFAIRS |
Members of our group volunteer to prepare talks for meetings on a subject of their choice. Each meeting consists of coffee, a talk lasting around ¾ hour, followed by a lively discussion. Members do not have to give a talk if they would prefer just to listen and join in the discussion. Anyone interested is welcome to attend one or two meetings before deciding whether to join the group. |

STOCK MARKET DISCUSSION |
We discuss world economies, politics, currencies and stockmarkets. There is an underlying “game” where members pick one share to hold for the year and another to change every 2 months. The winner is the one whose shares perform best over the year. No actual investment takes place! |
