FTSE 100

Key insight
10,800 round-number floor holds for now, but FTSE trails European peers sharply — DAX and CAC outperforming by 60-100 bps today signals UK-specific drag, likely sterling resilience vs USD at 1.3582.
Holds 10,810 — flat +0.14% on a quiet Friday, lagging DAX +0.7% and CAC +1.1%; GBP/USD 1.3582 caps export-earner upside and 10,800 round-number support keeps bears at bay.
Main risk
GBP/USD strength capping FTSE earnings
GBP/USD 1.3582 compresses overseas revenues for FTSE 100 multinationals; break above 1.3700 would amplify earnings downgrades.
