This episode of the Investor’s Champion Podcast focuses on the rampant takeover activity in the UK stock market, particularly in AIM quoted stocks. Chris and Lee delve into why takeovers are occurring at such a high rate, citing factors such as the UK's undervalued shares, the influx of private equity, and broader economic and political uncertainties including Brexit.

The conversation also highlights notable takeovers, both positive and negative, and the impact on shareholders and the UK investment landscape. By emphasising the importance of patience in investing, Chris suggests that UK investors might be missing out on long-term benefits by selling too soon.
