0849 GMT - U.K. investors are on edge as trade jitters continue, Hargreaves Lansdown's Matt Britzman writes. Trade tensions are dictating the market mood, especially in Europe where U.S. President Trump keeps the continent guessing with lingering threats, the senior equity analyst writes. With volatility set to remain, there may be chances for investors to cash in on market overreactions, especially if Trump's tariff threats are a bluff, the analyst says. The U.K.'s FTSE 100 trades down 0.4%. (adam.whittaker@wsj.com)
