Our Annual Predictions Episode is BACK!

You’ve been asking for it… our annual predictions episode is FINALLY HERE! We’re revisiting the calls we made for 2025, including one that genuinely made us feel like stock market geniuses, and a few that should’ve come with a “do not quote us” disclaimer. Then we roll straight into our 2026 predictions: what we think the markets are in for, whether Bitcoin’s about to have its main character moment, which big names could IPO, and the one theme we think might quietly run the whole year 👀 Also: Sophie records pantless, Vic has a travel meltdown that turns into an emergency fund masterclass, and Japan apparently has a… bear problem?? Now it’s your turn, do you think markets will be up or down by the end of 2026? Leave a comment, DM us your predictions, or send a voice note to The Curve Hotline! (https://thecurveplatform.com/pages/the-curve-hotline) WTF does that mean? A guide to all the jargony bits: S&P 500 – The 500 biggest US companies. The main US stock market vibe check. FTSE 100 – The 100 biggest companies in the UK stock market (pronounced “Footsie”). Bull Market – Stock market going up. Everyone feels like a genius. Bear Market – Stock market going down. Everyone pretends they “invest long-term anyway.” Volatile – Prices jumping up and down like they’ve had 6 coffees. Market Correction – A decent dip after a big rise. The market’s little reset. IPO – When a company joins the stock market for the first time. Its public debut. Emergency Fund – Money set aside for life’s chaos (aka Vic at Heathrow).
