They're mainly mining firms and drilling firms, like Shell A and Shell B. So Brexit itself needn't have that much bearing on the FTSE overall, especially as iron ore and other metal prices have been shooting up recently. | |

If the pound could tank before Christmas I'd appreciate it, as it would mean my nephews and nieces would get £20.21 each rather than £20. | |

Companies that trade in $s so rise in value if the £ falls as a lower £ is good for profit. | |

So all the messages for the past 24 hours have been negative on 16:18 - Dec 10 with 788 views | clive_baker | Large proportion of FTSE100 firms report in EUR, so to that degree it’s a derivative of FX. Hence FTSE rallying post Brexit referendum as £ devalued against EUR. FTSE 250 and GBP falls today are probably more reflective of a no deal. We’re not far off 1:1 £ to EUR. Summer hols and imports are going to be expensive unless that recovers ladies and gents. FWIW I think it will. I’ve just opened a long position on GBP vs EUR [Post edited 10 Dec 2020 16:22]

Which was also helped along nicely by Lagarde this afternoon in relation to EUR. | |

But FTSE 100 firms earn much of their Income in USD, boosting their earnings on the back of a weak Sterling. See also index movement after the referendum result | | | |
