The FTSE 100 hovered near 10,500, down 0.04%, as losses in Reckitt and JD Sports offset gains in miners and BP. Reckitt fell 5% after missing sales forecasts and warning on margins.

  • Stock Market Shows Two Warning Signs Seen Before Major Crashes
    June 5, 2026, 8:44 AM EDT. The stock market is signaling caution with two warning signs historically linked to sharp downturns. First, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) has diverged significantly from its 200-day moving average, closing at $757.09 versus a $523.61 average, a gap that preceded past crashes like the dot-com bubble and 2008 crisis. Second, investor leverage is elevated as margin borrowing increases, boosting both potential gains and risks. This comes amid a calm volatility index (VIX at 16.06) and high money supply ($22.80 trillion). Together, these factors suggest the market may be vulnerable to a 30%-plus correction despite current bullish momentum.
