The UK 100 is called to open -80 points at 9727. The UK100 index is set to continue its retreat from Wednesday’s record high, with London’s top flight seen opening about 80 points lower. This comes as Chancellor Rachel Reeves has reportedly abandoned plans to raise income tax on November 26, paired with concerns that that the Federal Reserve may hold off on cutting interest rates in the wake of the US government shutdown.
The Dow Jones lost 797.60 points, or 1.65%, to settle at 47,457.22, which is well off the record highs seen in the previous session. The S&P shed 1.66% to finish at 6,737.49. The broad-based index saw notable declines in the communication services sector, led by Disney falling nearly 8% on mixed results for the company’s fiscal fourth quarter, as well as information technology. The Nasdaq pulled back 2.29% to close at 22,870.36. All three major averages, as well as the small-cap Russell 2000 index, suffered their worst day since October 10th.
Asia benchmarks followed Wall Street’s lead this morning as the Nikkei 225 stood 1.8% lower and the Hang Seng index fell 1.6%%. Gold is higher at $4170 an ounce.
Land Securities today bolstered guidance for the financial year. Like-for-like net rental income in the year to March is now expected to grow by between 4% and 5%, up from initial 3-4% guidance. In addition, earnings per share growth is seen at the top end of its 2-4% guidance. Announcing half-year results, chief executive Mark Allan said the company was benefiting from its “proactive portfolio repositioning” of recent years.
