For 3 years, Standard Life Aberdeen's rebrand to Abrdn has been the brunt of media jokes. Dropping the vowels to look 'modern', 'dynamic', and 'engaging' - to me - makes it sound like 'a-burden'... not the association you want with an investment firm! buff.ly/3JcCtYL

More positive stories emerging about the economy... keep 'em coming, if you wouldn't mind: buff.ly/4cHAysC
