Morning Report – Thursday 1st April
FTSE to open at 6,740 (+26 pts)
Asian stocks have been boosted by Joe Biden’s ambitious spending plans and improved factory orders data.
In a speech yesterday evening, President Biden called for a sweeping use of government power to reshape the world’s largest economy and counter China’s rise in a $2 trillion-plus spending package. This proposal was met with swift Republican resistance and will be the source of much debate during the next quarter.
European stocks are set for a small opening bounce after yesterday’s weakness.
S&P 500 | +0.36% | Bullish for UK stocks |
Hang Seng | +1.12% | Bullish for UK stocks |
Gold | +0.35% | Bearish for UK stocks |
AUD/JPY | -0.56% | Bearish for UK stocks |
US 10yr Yield | -1.12% | Bullish for UK stocks |
The FTSE once again retreated from 6,800 resistance during yesterday’s session on Tuesday, prices closed near intra-day lows.
Should the market breach yesterday’s lows in early trading, this will likely setup a retest of the ascending trendline at 6,680 (gold dotted line).
