MORE UNCERTAINTY AND NERVOUSNESS AS STOCK MARKETS FALL

After much publicity and fanfare about stock market rises in the weekend press and following the FISE 100 hitting a post-pandemic high of 7,164 on Monday, the index has retreated back to 6,980 today, (Tuesday 1.00pm). The US Nasdaq was down 2.6% on Monday and in Europe the French CAC Index and the German Dax Index have also dropped.
Clearly this is worrying (if not unexpected), especially in view of the massive spending proposed for dealing with current issues such as the Health Service backlog, the much publicised need to address what has been called “the social care crisis” and planned legislation announced in the Queen’s Speech for the “levelling up” of the UK economy.
However, reports do indicate that the price of commodities and raw materials is increasing and there is a limit as to what proportion of rising costs can be borne by manufacturers without long term financial harm with consequential increases in the number of companies dealing with cashflow, profitability and potential insolvency issues.
Having said all that, watch it all reverse and bounce back tomorrow!!
