Seven small caps to get your hands on now

At our monthly MoneyWeek Roundtable, three investment experts shared their views on the 'frightening' state of the UK economy, bond market turmoil and more - plus the best stocks to buy in these troubled times.

Patrick Evershed: An extremely frightening one. We are living in a fools paradise with a bubble economy driven forward by excessively low interest rates and a vast amount of borrowing. We've got record personal indebtedness, a record number of people going insolvent, a record low savings ratio, record balance of trade deficit and government borrowing out of control. This is just unsustainable.
