The FTSE 100 fell to a 15-month low yesterday after the pound rallied on Britain and the European Union agreeing terms for a 21-month transition after Brexit.
Headlines
- The Trump administration plan to impose tariffs worth as much as $60 billion on Chinese products as early as this week.
- The UK clinched a deal that will buy time in Brexit talks in a move the European Union’s chief negotiator hailed as a decisive step. But it’s all still contingent on finding a solution to the Irish border. The two sides reached an agreement for a 21-month transition period that’s due to start on Brexit day in March next year, and said progress had also been made on the broader withdrawal treaty. Brexit Secretary David Davis said a good deal was now closer than ever.
