伦敦富时100指数周二进一步下跌，收于9117点，跌幅约0.9%，为8月8日以来的最低水平，因为对该国金融状况的担忧日益加剧，给房地产公司、公用事业、银行和零售商带来了压力。英国的长期借贷成本已达到27年来的最高水平，在秋季预算之前给财政大臣雷切尔·里夫斯增加了压力。这可能会迫使里夫斯考虑增税或削减开支，以确保她仍然遵守五年内债务下降的财政规则。全球市场情绪也较为谨慎，注意力集中在即将公布的美国劳动力市场数据上。Whitbread（-4.5%）、Legal&General Group（-4.5%.）、Unite Group（-4.3%.）、Phoenix Group Holdings（-4.2%.）、Land Securities Group（-4.2%）和Marks&Spencer（-4.5].）的跌幅最大。从好的方面来看，Fresnillo飙升5.2%，位居指数榜首，而Endeavour上涨1.5%，受到金价走强的支撑。石油巨头英国石油公司和壳牌公司从原油价格上涨中受益。

London’s FTSE 100 dropped further to close about 0.9% down at 9,117 on Tuesday, the lowest since August 8, as growing concerns about the country's financial situation weighed on real estate companies, utilities, banks and retailers. Britain's long-term borrowing costs have reached their highest level in 27 years, adding pressure on Chancellor Rachel Reeves ahead of the autumn budget. This may force Reeves to consider tax rises, or spending cuts, to ensure she still hits her fiscal rule to have debt falling in five years’ time. Sentiment was also cautious globally, with attention fixed on upcoming US labor market data. Whitbread (-4.5%), Legal & General Group (-4.5%), Unite Group (-4.3%), Phoenix Group Holdings (-4.2%), Land Securities Group (-4.2%) and Marks & Spencer (-4.5%) posted the biggest declines. On the upside, Fresnillo surged 5.2% to top the index, while Endeavour rose 1.5%, supported by stronger gold prices. Oil giants BP and Shell benefited from rising crude prices.
