FTSE 100 faces weaker open as markets await fresh data. Abm September 3, 2026 Share via: The FTSE 100 is expected to open marginally lower on Thursday as investors monitor another escalation in tensions between the US and Iran, while oil prices remain elevated and markets await a fresh batch of economic data. Futures indicate the FTSE 100 will open around 2.7 points lower at 10,753.75, after the blue-chip index closed Wednesday down 0.3% at 10,756.45. Geopolitical risk remains firmly in focus after Washington and Tehran exchanged fresh threats following some of the heaviest military action in weeks. US President Donald Trump said American forces had conducted a "very heavy attack" on Iranian targets overnight and warned that further strikes could follow. Iran, meanwhile, accused the US of striking a wedding party and warned that Washington would face a new strategy in the conflict. Despite the escalation, Brent crude eased to $94.36 a barrel in early trading from $95.40 at Wednesday's London close, although prices remain elevated amid continued disruption around the Strait of Hormuz. Wall Street provided a more positive lead overnight. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.6% on Wednesday, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite both closed 0.5% higher. Asian markets were mixed on Thursday, with Japan's Nikkei 225 and Hong Kong's Hang Seng both down 0.4%, while Australia's S&P/ASX 200 gained 0.4%. The Shanghai Composite was little changed. Gold strengthened to $4,436.10 an ounce from $4,371.82 on Wednesday as investors continued to seek exposure to the traditional safe-haven asset. In UK corporate news, Toscafund Asset Management is reportedly preparing to appoint former Circle Health chief executive Paolo Pieri as executive chair of Spire Healthcare if its proposed £1 billion takeover of the private hospital operator succeeds. Thursday's corporate calendar includes full-year results from Brooks Macdonald, half-year numbers from Eurocell and Everyman Media, and trading updates from Safestore Holdings and Jet2.

Droitwich hospital performs first VELYS robotic knee surgery. 26th March Orthopaedic surgeon Shahbaz Malik with the theatre team at Droitwich Spa Hospital (Image: Circle Health Group) A hospital has made a breakthrough in surgical technology. Droitwich Spa Hospital has carried out its first robotic-assisted knee replacement using the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution, an advanced surgical system designed to improve patient outcomes and speed up recovery. Produced by Johnson & Johnson MedTech, the VELYS system works with the ATTUNE Knee System and is designed to help surgeons perform precise knee replacements through real-time data and surgical guidance. It can optimise implant placement, preserve soft tissue around the knee joint, and operate without the need for CT scans. The ATTUNE Knee System has been shown to improve patient-reported outcomes by better aligning with each patient's anatomy, resulting in improved stability and range of motion after surgery. Shahbaz Malik, consultant orthopaedic surgeon at Droitwich Spa Hospital, performed the first procedure using the new system on March 13. He said: "Introducing VELYS technology at Droitwich Spa Hospital is an important step forward for patients across Worcestershire needing treatment for knee arthritis and orthopaedic surgery. "This advanced robotic-assisted system allows us to perform both total and partial knee replacements with enhanced precision, tailored to each patient's individual anatomy. "For patients, this means a more personalised surgical experience, with the potential for less pain, faster recovery times, and improved long-term outcomes. "Ultimately, it enables us to deliver high-quality care closer to home for the communities we serve." Droitwich Spa Hospital has a strong record of patient outcomes in knee replacement surgery and is recognised as a gold accredited provider of orthopaedic surgery by the National Joint Registry. The addition of the VELYS system is expected to further boost its reputation for clinical excellence. Pamela Smith, executive director at Droitwich Spa Hospital, said: "For over 40 years, we have made a commitment to provide the patients in our care with the latest medical technology in modern and welcoming facilities. "The arrival of our VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution is a major milestone for the hospital and promises to ensure that we can continue to provide our patients with an outstanding quality of care."
