Image source: Getty Images At the end of every month I check out the worst performer on the FTSE 100, and ask myself if it’s the best share to buy in the month ahead. As a contrarian investor, I like picking up bargains. But this approach can also be risky as troubled stocks can take a long time to turn around. Some never get there. I was dismayed to discover that September’s worst performer is a stock I hold in my Self-Invested Personal Pension: spirits giant Diageo (LSE: DGE). It fell another 15% over the month and is now down 33% over…
Base Carbon (OTCQX:BCBNF) has achieved a significant milestone as Verra approved the CORSIA-compliant methodology VM0050 for its Rwanda Cookstoves project.

The International Air Transport Association (IATA), joined by global airline associations, carbon market stakeholders, and project developers, has sounded an urgent alarm over the critical shortage of carbon credits available to airlines under the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA). Without immediate government action to authorize the release of credits, the industry warns that the scheme—an essential pillar of aviation’s climate strategy—could falter, undermining both environmental goals and vital climate finance flows. The role of CORSIA in aviation’s climate strategy CORSIA, adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in 2016, requires airlines to offset emissions from…

Image source: Getty Images A second income of £350 a week, or £18,000 a year, would be a real boost in retirement. It won’t buy a life of luxury, but it would make later life a lot more comfortable. This sum can be generated from a Stocks and Shares ISA or Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP), provided investors get stuck in early and give their money time to grow. Building the pot There are two main routes to generating £18,000 a year. The first is the so-called 4% rule. This suggests that by withdrawing around 4% of capital each year, the…

ITV’s share price is down 35% since February 2022, and has ultimately gone nowhere for decades. Meanwhile, Pets at Home has slumped 50% in five years. Which one do I personally think has the best turnaround potential? Let’s find out. ITV ITV survived the Sky satellite threat in the 1990s largely because it remained the default free option for millions who couldn’t afford the pricey subscription packages. And it has also survived disruption threats from the internet so…
