The FTSE futures seem rather high considering the Far East falls and negative US futures, I would not be surprised to see a 20 point + fall at some time this morning. Capita Group said it was pleased with its current trading and expected 2003 results to be in line with expectations. It said it had won 615 million pounds worth of new work and contract extensions in 2003 and was working on bids worth another 2.4 billion pounds. MITIE Group which maintains & cleans properties such as the Houses of Parliament and the London Eye ferris wheel, said it was confident of a successful year as it posted a rise in first-half profits in line with expectations. Profit rose 16 percent to 18.5 million pounds on turnover up 14 percent to 316.3 million pounds. Alliance & Leicester mortgage bank said its performance this year was in line with market expectations as it increased revenue growth. Canary Wharf The founder said there was no certainty he would bid for the property company AstraZeneca said that new data supported the safely and efficacy of its Exanta treatment for blood clots. The firm said a study involding 2,303 patients in five countries showed Exanta was more effective than standard anti-coagulant treatment warfarin, with no significant difference in bleeding experienced by patients.Ultra Electronics defence and aerospace electronics firm said it was on course to meet market expectations for its performance in 2003. The firm said it had continued to trade strongly in the second half of its fiscal year, with higher sales in airport systems and electronics for armoured vehicles more than offsetting a slowdown in airborne anti-submarine warfare products.

Unless you've got a firm conviction on where
the US markets will finish, I see no point in
taking any FTSE positions for tomorrow.
The way it's going, the US will probably have a flat
finish with the FTSE going nowhere tomorrow morning.
Melnibone.

hope it helps.
Market Technicals
DAX - The DAX did retest the 3780 support, and if that gives way, then the low at 3692 is at risk. That may be the least potential to the downside, as the real target could be to as low as 3570.
FTSE-100 - also put sthe support at 4330 at risk later today, and before long, a downmvoe to 4270 might be initiated. But the bigger risk is further downmove to 4080 - 4050.
Nasdaq-100 - also projects a rough +ascending wedge+ outline, which is terminated a a break of the 1380 level -- which we may see again later in the week. A close below 1380 confirms the termnination, and should yield further down moves to at least 1300. We may even see the 1210 area again.
SPX - The SPX has been unable to penetrate the 1070 resistance, then fell lower on Friday -- which forms a very distinctive Head and Shoulders pattern in the intra-day charts. The support at 1065 will therefore likely fail and a fall to the 1050 - 1048 area follows. The +ascending wedge+ that has been in effect on the price chart in the past four months may have come to a head on Friday. A close below 1045 any day this week suggests that the wedge pattern is over, and the next main direction will be a return towards the base of the wedge which is at 960.
Dow - The blue chips average has been unable to break through 10,000 all of last week , and we may therefore see further declines to 9700 as a concsequence. The rough +ascending wedge+ pattern in the price chart is also terminated by any close below 9700 any day this week. That suggests further declones to 9450 at least, perhaps even make a return to the origin of the wedge which is at 8900.
