FTSE REMAINS INDECISIVE

In the reported financial update, the FTSE 100 index experienced a slight decline of 0.11% to close at 7,401.72 on Wednesday. This drop was primarily driven by weaknesses in the financial and mining sectors but was partially offset by robust results in the retail sector. Notable companies such as National Grid, BP, Shell, Anglo American, and Fresnillo contributed to the index's decline. In contrast, Marks & Spencer reported a significant surge in first-half profits, leading to an almost 9% increase in its share price. Other retailers like JD Wetherspoon saw strong sales growth, while ITV reported modest revenue improvement but faced a 6% drop in its share price.

Additionally, the economic news highlighted Eurozone retail sales declining for the third consecutive month, with notable drops in non-food products and automotive fuel, though August's figures were revised upward.

On the technical side, RSI is in the neutral zone, but MACD is showing buy signals. In case of Bullish movement, the price might reach levels of 7491. As a pivot point might be considered 7409, from where the price might fall to 7351.
