5 November 2025
Despite the best efforts of Rachel Reeves to unsettle the market, yesterday saw a modest rally in the FTSE 100 which rose 13.59 points to 9,714.96 and this has continued today with the Index up another 11 points in early afternoon trade. The Index is only 35 points off its all-time high though which still seems odd given the uncertainties in the economy. Tim Martin of Wetherspoons has used today’s trading statement to comment on the potential tax rises and how they would have a negative impact on the economy highlighting the concerns.
