Current trend

The quotes of the FTSE 100 index show corrective dynamics around 7275.0.

Traditionally, the corporate reporting season ends with the publication of financial data of foreign issuers, whose shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange. Thus, the Swedish company focused on the timber and pulp and paper industry, Holmen AB, recorded revenues of 5.75B Swedish kronor, which is not only inferior to the forecasted 5.86B Swedish kronor but also 6.22B Swedish kronor a quarter earlier. Earnings per share reached 5.50 Swedish kronor from preliminary estimates of 5.63 Swedish kronor and a previous figure of 8.50 Swedish kronor. Danish medical device developer and manufacturer Coloplast A/S was in a similar situation, with revenue of 6.11B Danish kronor, down from an expected 6.18B Danish kronor, and earnings per share dropping to 5.88 Danish kronor from the preliminary estimate of 5. 91 Danish kroner.
