Global equities have made a decent start to the new week, one chock full of central bank risk and continued geopolitical fun and games. The UK’s UK Index outperforms on fresh GBP weakness vs USD and EUR (scepticism after Friday’s Brexit deal), helping its many heavyweights. Elsewhere investors welcomed a another Wall St record close on optimism about US tax reform, while Europe sees continued rotation out of Tech and into Banks.
The UK UK Index is higher thanks mostly to HSBC (DoJ seeks dismissal of deferred criminal charges), BATS (weaker GBP), RDSB/BP (buoyant oil prices), Miners (weaker USD, copper solid), Banks (rotation, rate hikes) and Pharma (defensive). Minimal resistance from CNA, BT/RB (profit taking) and EZJ (snow disruption).
Germany’s DAX underperforms although not how you might expect. Unhelpful EUR strength vs GBP and USD is hurting many exporters, but consumers more than industrials. Losers include Telecoms and Utilities (coalition talks) and general weakness, overpowering gains for industrials, while Autos and Financials are mixed.
The UK Index 100 has broken above 4715. The DAX 30 has turned lower from 13200 again. Dow Jones Futures have slowed up around 24360. Gold is making an upside test of $1250.
