Morning Report – Friday 1st October

FTSE to open at 7,007 (-79 pts)

Stocks on both sides of the Atlantic failed to hold onto their gains yesterday as fears of ‘stagflation’ continue to grow.

And the US dollar hit one-year highs as traders anticipate US interest rate rises. Despite the dollar strength, gold rallied 1.8% yesterday – signalling that risk aversion is increasing.

Looking ahead to today’s session, we have manufacturing PMI data from the UK, Germany, EU and US.

S&P 500-1.19%Bearish for UK stocks
Hang Seng-0.36%Bearish for UK stocks
Gold-0.16%Neutral for UK stocks
AUD/JPY-0.45%Bearish for UK stocks
US 10yr Yield-1.57%Bullish for UK stocks
Regency Risk Barometer Snapshot

Yesterday’s price action saw the FTSE fail to hold above last week’s highs – closing near intra-day lows and forming a bearish pin-bar candle in the process.

The FTSE futures have moved lower overnight and the cash market is set to open back at short-term support.
