The UK 100 is called to open +20 points at 7621. The UK 100 looks set to make a modestly positive start to todays session, the 10 point expected gain is however somewhat muted by comparison to yesterdays US session, which saw the Dow Jones finish almost 500 points higher, while both the broader-based S&P and Nasdaq also ended firmly in positive territory. Asia’s main markets this morning largely mirrored the positivity in the US, though there was some disappointment when China left five-year prime rates unchanged.
