富时100指数回吐了早盘涨势,但周二收盘时仍上涨0.3%,创下8045点的历史新高,因为乐观的企业发展抵消了强劲的国内采购经理人指数对宽松货币政策希望的轻微抑制。AB Foods在宣布其主要零售部门Primark及其食糖部门第一季度利润增长后,以9%的涨幅领涨。零售业的利好消息也支持Ocado、M&S和京东体育的股价上涨5.5%至2.5%,后者还因拟议收购美国的Hibbett而上涨。强劲的企业业绩也使Taylor Wimpey股价上涨1.3%,此前该公司在最新的交易更新中指出,销售进展如预期,克服了人们对高利率会损害这家房屋建筑商订单的担忧。与此同时,银行扩大了涨幅,渣打银行和巴克莱银行上涨1.5%,后者将于周四公布公司业绩。在数据方面,英国的采购经理人指数创下11个月来的新高。
The FTSE 100 trimmed its early rally but still closed 0.3% higher at a record of 8,045 on Tuesday, as optimistic corporate developments offset slight pushback to hopes of looser monetary policy from a strong domestic PMI print. AB Foods led the gains with a 9% surge after announcing that profit grew in its key retail arm, Primark, and its sugar division in Q1. The positive retail news also supported Ocado, M&S, and JD Sports shares to add between 5.5% and 2.5%, with the latter also lifted by its proposed acquisition of US-based Hibbett. Strong corporate results also pulled Taylor Wimpey shares 1.3% higher after noting that sales are progressing as expected in its newest trading update, overcoming concerns that high interest rates would hurt orders for the homebuilder. In the meantime, banks stretched their gains with Standard Chartered and Barclays adding 1.5%, with the latter due to release its corporate results on Thursday. On the data front, the UK's PMI hit an 11-month high.
