Worst UK 100 Performers (Average % loss)

What immediately jumps out from this list of names is the prominence of relatively new London-listed companies on the UK 100 . Names such as Convatec and Mediclinic International may not be as familiar to traders as some of the best performers, however a strong 2017 could see average performance figures improve.
