Proactive investor -Thursday There is also expected to be news from the high street as fashion retailer Next plc (LON:NXT) posts annual numbers.

Numis is forecasting annual profits of £825mln against £770mln beforehand from Next, which blamed mild weather and weaker online trading for a downbeat January update.

"We expect investor attention to focus on updated guidance for FY17, where initially the group expected sales to increase by between +1% and +6%, with profit growing in line," analyst Matthew Taylor said.

Berenberg has slashed its price target for Next Plc (LON:NEXT) to 4800p, down from its previous target of 7300p, claiming that the high street retailer is stuck “between a rock and a hard place.”

The German bank reiterated its hold rating for the stock, but said a changing customer base “presents a significant structural challenge” in the long term, and believes the company may face further revenue pressure in the not-to-distant future.

Proactive investor - Next Plc (LON:NXT) up 10% to 4,808p. High street retailer uses recent Brexit-induced slide to buy back 110,000 shares.
