Europe may have just changed the economics of global trade.. with carbon.

14 March 2026 admin 0

And surprisingly few investors are noticing.From 2026, the EU is rolling out the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). It puts a price on the carbon embedded in certain imported goods.Why it matters:European manufacturers have long paid for carbon through the EU Emissions Trading System. But many overseas producers haven’t, which encouraged “carbon leakage,” where production moves abroad while emissions stay the same. CBAM closes that gap. Initially, it covers: Cement Iron & steel Aluminium Fertilisers Electricity Hydrogen In effect, carbon is starting to function like a border tariff - and that could reshape supply chains.For investors, it’s a signal: climate policy isn’t just environmental anymore.It’s industrial policy, influencing [...]

Jack Welch built GE by growing shareholders.

19 January 2026 admin 0

Jack Welch built GE by growing shareholder value steadily, through acquisitions and through stripping anything that scored under 7/10. At EnviraBoard, they’re taking a page from that playbook. Although they are not planning any acquisitions, EnviraBoard shareprice has moved steadily, in line with real business developments: • 4p in Q3 2024• 6p in Q4 2024• 7p in Q3 2025• 9p in Q4 2025 We held back the move to 12p in Q4, anticipating that keeping it at 9p would slingshot us into 2026. We were right and so far in 2026, we’ve already banked circa £280k, tracking toward £300k this month - the strongest [...]

Why EIS will survive the budget

20 November 2025 admin 0

The Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) is a UK government initiative aimed at encouraging investment in early-stage, high-growth businesses. To qualify, companies must be small, unlisted, carry on a qualifying trade, and employ fewer than 250 people.

Companies must use EIS funds within two years of issuing shares or beginning trading. EIS is a great boost for start ups as it attracts much needed investment in innovative companies at a [...]
