Read our privacy policy The FTSE 100 has given back some of its gains following a strong week for London’s top shares, after new Covid restrictions were announced for England on Wednesday evening. “Thus while the UK economy may see consumer activity somewhat subdued compared with an ordinary December, investors should take solace in the possibility that we could soon see the economy firing on all cylinders once again.” In Europe, investors also appeared worried, sending Germany’s Dax index down 0.3%, while the Cac 40 in Paris lost 0.1%. In company news, Go-Ahead Group admitted to “serious errors” during its franchising of the London & South Eastern Railway line, pushing its shares down by more than 24% at one point in the day.
