The UK 100 is called to open -14 points at at 10,484. Stocks in London are set to open marginally lower on Tuesday as further US-Iran fighting pushed oil prices sharply higher ahead of US inflation data.
US President Donald Trump said the US would again strike Iran “hard” as the military launched a fresh wave of attacks for the third consecutive night and reimposed a blockade on Iranian ports.
In the US on Monday, Wall Street ended lower, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average down 0.3%, the S&P 500 down 0.8% and the Nasdaq Composite down 1.6%.
Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller said the US central bank should be prepared to raise interest rates in the near term if inflation continues to run above target.
In Asia on Tuesday, the Nikkei 225 index in Tokyo was up 0.7%. In China, the Shanghai Composite rose 0.5%, while the Hang Seng index in Hong Kong gained 0.3%.
BP expects its oil trading result to be slightly higher in the second quarter compared with an exceptionally strong first quarter, as it profits again from a surge in oil prices caused by the Iran war, the British major said on Tuesday. BP expects upstream production to fall in the second quarter to between 2.17 million and 2.22 million barrels of oil equivalent per day, compared with around 2.34 million boed in the first quarter, due in part to the effects of the crisis, it said in a quarterly trading update. It flagged its gas trading result to be broadly flat compared with the first quarter. Net debt at the end of the second quarter is expected to be in the range of $22 billion to $23 billion, lower than the previous quarter’s $25.31 billion. BP said it expects the total of net debt, hybrids and Gulf of Mexico settlement liabilities to decrease by around $6.3 billion to $7.3 billion compared with the first quarter. BP has a target to cut its net debt to $14 billion to $18 billion by end-2027.
