## Resource

In this episode, Eloise Goulder, head of the Data Assets and Alpha Group, is joined by product specialist Edwina Lowe and Luca Rainero, head of Data Intelligence, to unpack how retail investors have influenced equity markets this year. They delve into how investors are staying active through volatility, navigating trends in the silver market and the relative outperformance in semiconductor versus software stocks. They also discuss how retail activity is shaping volumes, turnover and intraday trading patterns. Finally, they explore what social media activity can reveal about retail positioning and intent, and how AI tools are accelerating the retail investment cycle and potentially reshaping market structure.
