John Stepek is on holiday YET AGAIN. So on this week's market roundup, Bloomberg's Morwenna Coniam, who is part of the team that runs the UK Markets Today blog, joins Bloomberg UK Wealth Editor at Large Merryn Somerset Webb.

They discuss UK inflation unexpectedly rising to 3.6%, its highest level since January 2024, and why it's a headache for BOE Governor Andrew Bailey. Plus, a debrief on Chancellor Rachel Reeves' Mansion House speech, the debate around Cash ISAs, and Bitcoin's surge in price thanks to "Crypto Week" in the US.
