We mentioned in yesterday’s Morning Report that for the bullish ‘support play’ scenario to play out, the market would need to hold in the top quartile of Wednesday’s range. This scenario had collapsed by 9am as the market broke decisively below support.

The market now looks set to retest the March lows reached at the start of the Ukraine war.
