UK 100 set to regain record highs imminently?

What an exciting year 2018 has been so far, with exceptional volatility and trading opportunities driven by massive global growth concerns, a commodity price recovery, geopolitical tensions and the ever present situation concerning the world’s central banks and their ability to keep economies and the global markets supported.

The UK’s UK 100 has already come back to where it was just before the public voted to leave the EU and is now a mere 350pts from its May 2017 all-time record highs. Many are saying that it is only a matter of time before it completely recoups the 1000pts it lost in H2 2017 – the question being simply:  when?

Emerging markets are taking action to boost their economies – will China re-emerge as the Beast from the East, or will India provide a new destination for investor excitement?

The mining and oil & gas sectors are still under the cosh from low commodity prices but some shares have recovered by up to 250% from the Jan 2018 low points.

The Banks are also still heavily depressed by low interest rates – that look set to stay low for longer. However the companies that are really pushing up the UK 100 and are those that benefit from a weaker GBP.

How can you also capitalise on the weak Pound? What about profiting from central bank policy decisions?

Volatility provides ideal trading conditions, whatever the long term trend. a pickup in momentum across many of the global indices has unearthed fresh opportunities to find both growth and income in the markets. With UK equities still some way off their all-time highs, there are still attractive amounts of upside to be had.
