12. Should I Invest During A Recession?

Listen to this episode from The Stocks and Savings Podcast on Spotify. As the UK economy enters a recession (maybe?), we talk about how this type of economic downturn impacts your investments, and the approach we are taking with our own personal investments. Plus, what companies do we think are more recession-resistant than others, and why now might be the most important time to get your personal finances in order.
