The FTSE 100 trades lower as US fiscal fears unsettle investors, and weaker demand for an auction of US debt adds to nerves, as the massive tax bill goes through Congress. Susannah Streeter, head of money and markets, Hargreaves Lansdown comments on the latest update. ’The growing mountain of US debt is causing ripples of worry across financial markets, with signs investors are baulking at financing the Trump administration. These concerns have hit sentiment in Europe, given the repercussions that financial difficulties in the world’s largest economy would have on the global economy. The FTSE 100 is set to open lower, as the focus shifts to trepidation about how planned tax cuts will worsen the US outlook. It comes after steep falls on Wall Street about what could lie ahead for the economy. It seems that every time Trump heralds a policy as ‘beautiful’ it has an ugly effect on financial markets
What next for interest rates?Susannah Streeter, head of money and markets, Hargreaves Lansdown:“As financial markets are hit with waves of trepidation about what’s in store for global trade, the Bank of England is set to stay in wait-and-see mode. It’s highly unlikely, given the current climate of uncertainty, that policymakers will vote to cut rates this month. The last inflation snapshot came in higher than expected, jumping to 3% in January, which is another reason why they won’t be in a hurry to reduce borrowing costs. It’s unclear what the exact repercussions of Trump’s punishing tariffs will be for the UK, but given how intertwined the UK is with the global economy, it will also feel the effects as the trade war escalates. Already growth is highly sluggish, only just crawling along, by 0.1% in the final quarter of last year.There are hopes of a trade deal between the US and the UK, but given Trump’s capricious policymaking, until any agreement is signed, sealed and delivered, the UK is set to stay vulnerable. So, given the precarious growth situation, two more rate cuts are on the cards for this year, but it’s likely that we will have to wait until May, at the earliest before another cut is delivered.’’What will happen to savings?Sarah Coles, head of personal finance, Hargreaves Lansdown:. “The savings market has showed impressive stamina in 2025 so far, with the best fixed savings deals hanging on above 4.5% and the best easy access above 4.75%
"Over the last few years, competitors have reduced costs, launched technology upgrades and added new features - against this more competitive backdrop, Hargreaves Lansdown has looked relatively less innovative."
The FTSE 100 ended 2024 on a high note, gaining 5.8% after a rangebound year. Banking stocks led the charge, while miners and builders lagged. Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s boom lost momentum in the year’s closing weeks, marking a mixed performance across markets, as Hargreaves Lansdown’s comment on the position.Matt Britzman, senior equity analyst, Hargreaves Lansdown:“The FTSE 100 wrapped up 2024 on a high note, shaking off a slow start to the session to finish the year in positive territory. After an impressive climb early on, the index hit an all-time high in May but couldn’t quite muster the momentum to break out of a rangebound pattern in the months that followed – ending the year up 5.8%. Meanwhile, it played second fiddle to the tech-fuelled US markets, where AI excitement sent the SP 500 soaring. Back home, UK investors navigated a year of twists and turns, with two interest rate cuts offering relief while a tax-hiking budget put pressure on some domestic companies
Hargreaves Lansdown has launched a new online venture capital trust (VCT) investment service following tax hikes introduced in last month's Budget.
