The UK 100 is called to open -34 points at at 10,867. Stocks in London are set to open lower on Monday, on worries over the Strait of Hormuz, as Iran ruled out an agreement to open the waterway unless the US meets its demand.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guards insisted Sunday that they would not reopen the Strait of Hormuz until the US complied with a list of demands, including paying compensation for war damage.
Tehran insists on retaining control of the Hormuz after the war and wants to charge tolls for passage, repeatedly striking ships it accuses of attempting to circumvent its preferred route.
The US labour market surprisingly shed jobs last month, in a nonfarm payrolls reading that sent the dollar into reverse on Friday.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics said nonfarm payrolls shrunk by 23,000 in July, after rising 20,000 in June. Payrolls had been expected to rise by 80,000 last month, however, according to consensus cited by FXStreet.
What’s more, the reading for June was downwardly revised from 57,000, and the May data was lowered to 63,000 from 129,000.
In the US on Friday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average ended up 0.3%, the S&P 500 rose 0.6% and the Nasdaq Composite surged 1.3%.
In Tokyo on Monday, the Nikkei 225 surged 2.1%. In China, the Shanghai Composite climbed 0.1%, while the Hang Seng Index was up 0.6%. The S&P/ASX 200 in Sydney fell 0.3%.
China’s consumer and factory prices grew slower than expected last month, official data showed Sunday, as the world’s second-largest economy confronts persistent deflationary pressure.
