Equities are mixed mid-morning as the UK 100 suffers from stronger than expected Q3 preliminary GDP strengthening the case for a UK interest rate hike. This has sent GBP higher, to hamper the internationally exposed, while persistent USD strength hampers Energy and Miners and comment from David Davis does little to appease Brexit concerns. US futures are higher thanks to continued decent Q3 earnings reports from across the pond. The EUR and German DAX are both flat ahead of tomorrow’s ECB policy meeting and update on QE taper plans.
The UK 100 is dented by declines for Miners (GLEN/RIO/BHP/AAL), oil majors (RDSb/BP), RB (broker update), STAN (profit taking), BT (extension of downtrend), FERG (Amazon launched Business Prime) and ABF (profit taking). Helping out are BATS (defensive, despite GBP rally), LLOY (no PPI, profits +50%), AHT (extending rally), HSBC and AZN. The
German DAX is flat as gains for Deutsche Bank & Commerzbank (M&A speculation for the latter), BASF (results read-across from french peer Air Liquide) and Lufthansa (results) offset Utility pair E.ON & RWE and car maker BMW.
The UK Index 100 holds its 7500-7550 3-week range. The DAX 30 trades sideways 12980-13040 in a narrowing range. Dow Jones Futures found support at 23430 to remain in a rising channel. Gold is fast approaching 2017 intersecting rising support and its 200-day moving average at $1266.
