FTSE 100
The FTSE 100 index is falling today after having three consecutive days of minor gains. The index is trading at £6,300, which is higher than this month’s low of £5,900. What’s interesting in the FTSE is that more investors are buying Carnival shares, even as the number of coronavirus cases jump around the world. Carnival share price is at 1,140p and is up by 16% in the past 30 days. Still, it is among the worst-performing stocks in the FTSE this year having lost more than 70% of its value.
EURGBP
The FTSE 100 index is wavering today as traders reflect on a slew of corporate updates and a speech by Rishi Sunak. The index is unchanged and is trading at £6,157. This compares with the 1.23% gain of the DAX index and the 0.32% gain in the CAC 40 index. Other top indices in Europe like AEX and Stoxx 50 are up by more than 0.50%.
