FTSE 100 Rises on Oil as UK Futures Climb

Bloomberg Markets •

UK stock futures rise as oil prices march higher, with the FTSE 100 catching a bid despite underperforming continental European and US peers last week. Heavyweights HSBC, Astra Zeneca and Unilever fell, while only around a dozen stocks rose. The Euro Stoxx 50 also faced pressure from SAP, Siemens and Inditex declines, though semiconductor stocks provided support.

Continued volatility is expected given macro risks and ongoing global oil supply uncertainty.
