This week begins with how booming demand for AI infrastructure is driving a sharp increase in the price of memory chips. Erin Withey is in the studio to explain what this means for supply chains, which companies are winning as a result, and whether the squeeze is here to stay.

Helen Kirrane unpacks the reasons why lower oil prices and attractive valuations are boosting sentiment, and which funds are at the forefront of the recovery. More updates on that here
