周二，富时100指数上涨0.5%，至8190点，此前一个交易日收盘时为5月初以来的最低水平，追随欧洲的积极交易日，因为投资者在明天英国关键通胀公布之前评估了最新的企业发展。惠氏公布盈利结果后，惠氏股价上涨3.5%，这反映出3月季度后半段的销售额有所回升。此外，弗雷泽集团在宣布8000万英镑的股票回购后，股价上涨了近1%。另一方面，Ashtead股价下跌4.5%，因为其盈利报告强调了好莱坞罢工对其电影和电视制作行业的影响，并没有提及可能在美国上市，尽管该公司仍报告了更高的收入和利润。在关键板块中，工业矿商反弹，基本金属价格有所触底，嘉能可、安托法加斯塔和英美资源集团上涨超过1%，而银行则延续了昨日的涨幅。

The FTSE 100 rose by 0.5% to the 8,190 mark on Tuesday after ending the prior session at its lowest since early May, tracking a positive session in Europe as investors assessed the latest corporate developments ahead of tomorrow’s key inflation print in the UK. Whitbread shares added 3.5% after the company released earnings results, which reflected a pickup in sales toward the latter part of the March quarter. Additionally, the Frasers Group increased by close to 1% after announcing a GBP 80 million share buyback. On the other hand, Ashtead shares dropped 4.5% as its earnings report highlighted the impact of Hollywood strikes in its film and TV production sectors and made no mention of a possible US listing, although the firm still reported higher revenue and profit. Among key sectors, industrial miners rebounded as base metal prices somewhat bottomed, with Glencore, Antofagasta, and Anglo American adding over 1%, while banks extended yesterday’s gains.

富时100指数周一收平了早些时候的涨幅，收于8143点，保持了上周的跌幅，因为市场在下个月英格兰银行大选前继续评估其削减前景以及欧洲和英国的政治风险。由于中国工业产出、房地产投资和房价的悲观数据令人失望，对基本金属和黑色金属的价格构成压力，权重工业矿股是盘中跌幅最大的股票之一。嘉能可下跌1.4%，力拓和英美资源集团各下跌近1%。另一方面，金融股涨幅居前，巴克莱银行和海军上将集团各上涨1.5%，汇丰银行上涨1%，圣詹姆斯银行在富时100指数最后一周上涨2.5%。

The FTSE 100 trimmed earlier gains and closed flat at 8,143 on Monday, holding the drop from last week as markets continued to assess the cutting outlook for the Bank of England and political risks in Europe and the UK ahead of the latter's election next month. Heavyweight industrial miners were among the sharpest losers of the session as pessimistic data for Chinese industrial output, real estate investing, and housing prices disappointed, pressuring the prices for base and ferrous metals. Glencore lost 1.4% while Rio Tinto and Anglo American each dropped close to 1%. On the other hand, financial stocks were among the top gainers, with Barclays and the Admiral Group each adding 1.5%, while HSBC gained 1% and St. James’s added 2.5% in its final week at the FTSE 100.
