Spreadex Market Update
Risk appetite is stable
Risk appetite is stable ahead of the Fed meeting due to happen later this evening, with the FTSE 100 0.5 per cent higher and the Dow Jones Industrial Average higher by a similar amount. It looks as if, for now at least, the market has stabilised from the recent bout of volatility and rebalancing, making buying risk somewhat more palatable than this time last week. Investors will be aware that November and December are typically good months for equities, as money managers look to allocate and companies resume buying back their stock after Q3 earnings. Only time will tell.
Standard Chartered leads the losers today in the FTSE 350 after the bank warned on earnings, sending its shares down by circa 10 per cent. Conversely, basic materials are topping the winners’ board, with Kazakhmys, African Barrick Gold and Anglo American all up by more than 3 per cent.
