The UK 100 is called to open -38 points this morning at 7296. The UK 100 looks set to open slightly lower this morning as investors contemplated the latest comments regarding China potential changing of strict Covid rules. Despite optimism last week that the Covid measures could be wound down slowly to let people and the economy breathe, the Chinese officials reiterated that they will ‘unswervingly’ stick to the Covid zero approach. Some analysts believe that even in the best-case scenario, any reopening is unlikely to happen before Q2 of next year. On Friday, the Dow Jones gained nearly 402 points, or 1.3%. The S&P rose 1.36%, and the Nasdaq was 1.28% higher. Still, the major averages closed the week with losses. The Dow ended a four-week win streak on rate hiking fears.
