The UK 100 called to open -17 points this morning at 8,805. Stock markets in the UK and US are set to open lower after President Trump said reciprocal tariffs will come into effect from 1 August.
The Dow Jones was closed on Friday for the Independence day public holiday. U.S. stock futures fell early Monday after President Donald Trump threatened an additional 10% tariff on countries that align with the “Anti-American policies of BRICS.” He also confirmed that tariffs are set to go into effect Aug. 1, not July 9. Trump did not elaborate on any specific policy of BRICS. The announcement came as the group’s meeting is underway in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Dow Jones futures slid by 142 points, or 0.31%. S&P futures and Nasdaq futures dipped 0.47% and 0.56%, respectively.
In Asia this morning, the Nikkei 225 is down by 0.6% while the Hang Seng index and Shanghai Composite are close to their opening marks.
Plus500 has reported a rise in quarterly profit as it continued an expansion drive into markets including Canada, the UAE and India. Quarterly earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) increased 12 per cent to $91.3m (£67m) on revenue of $209.3m. Plus500 said active customers on its platform had jumped to 132,602 in the three months ended 30 June, from 123,803 the year prior. This contributed to a record $3.1bn in customer deposits over the half-year period.
Shell on Monday said it expects a weaker second quarter driven by lower trading performance in its Integrated Gas and Chemicals and Products segments. Integrated Gas production is projected between 900,000 and 940,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (kboe/d), down from 927,000 kboe/d in the first quarter. Liquefied natural gas liquefaction volumes are forecast between 6.4 million and 6.8 million tonnes, compared with 6.6 million tonnes in the prior period. The expected tax charge for the segment ranges from $300 million to $600 million, below the $800 million posted in the first quarter. In the Upstream segment, production is forecast between 1.66 million and 1.76 million kboe/d, compared to 1.855 million kboe/d in the previous quarter. The reduction reflects scheduled maintenance and the completed sale of the Shell Petroleum Development Company. Exploration well write-offs and the share of profit or loss from joint ventures and associates are each expected to be about $200 million. The taxation charge is estimated between $1.6 billion and $2.4 billion, compared to $2.6 billion last quarter. Marketing adjusted earnings are expected to be higher than in the first quarter. Sales volumes are projected between 2.6 million and 3 million barrels per day, slightly below the 2.674 million recorded previously. Pre-tax depreciation is estimated between $500 million and $700 million, with a tax charge between $200 million and $600 million.
