FTSE 100

Bearish

Key insight

Falls 163 pts from Monday's 10,761 close — erasing four-day winning streak. BoE expected to lift Bank Rate 25bp to 4.00% Thu 5 Nov; a hawkish surprise would pressure UK rate-sensitives further.

Breaks back below 10,600 as miners slide to 4-month lows and oil rebound at $96/bbl reignites inflation fears 48 hrs before BoE rate call. ABF -3% adds single-stock drag.

Main risk

BoE Rate Decision – Thu 5 Nov

Consensus prices 25bp to 4.00%; any signal of extended tightening cycle would reprice UK banks and housebuilders sharply lower from current levels.
