Morning Report – Wednesday 28th July
FTSE to open at 6,995 (-1 pt)
The brutal sell-off in Chinese stocks that we’ve seen this week has taken a pause overnight as investors await this evening’s comments from the Fed…
Markets will be watching closely for any hints in relation to inflation, economic growth, the path of interest rates and when the Fed will likely start tapering its bond buying program.
Meanwhile, this morning’s results from Barclays has seen first-half profits nearly treble due to a strong performance from its investment banking business.
S&P 500 | -0.47% | Bearish for UK stocks |
Hang Seng | +0.81% | Bullish for UK stocks |
Gold | +0.35% | Bearish for UK stocks |
AUD/JPY | +0.17% | Bullish for UK stocks |
US 10yr Yield | -3.87% | Bearish for UK stocks |
Yesterday’s price action saw the FTSE break lower from the inside day pattern only to close back inside Friday’s range – forming a bullish ‘fakeout’ pattern.
We would expect to see the market retest Friday’s highs during today’s session.
