UK Stock Market Today: FTSE 100 Rebounds as Oil Slides, Persimmon Leads London Rally
London shares snapped a three-day losing run on Tuesday after oil prices pulled back and investors took heart from comments by U.S. President Donald Trump that the Middle East war could end soon. The FTSE 100, which tracks Britain’s biggest listed firms, was up 1.6% at 10,412.54. The FTSE 250 index of medium-sized companies rose 1.9%, and both were on course for their biggest one-day rise in nearly a year.
