NatWest shares up as UK rate moves draw buyers to banks

NatWest Group Plc shares pushed higher Thursday, gaining 7.40p, or 1.26%, to trade at 593.40p/593.60p, according to delayed Hargreaves Lansdown prices. Investors bought back into UK financials, putting NatWest near the top of the UK bank movers as the FTSE 100 showed a 0.80% rise on the same feed. Rate expectations drove much of the action. NatWest’s UK focus puts it right in the path of the Bank of England’s rate decisions, which is why investors pay such close attention. AJ Bell says about 90% of NatWest’s total income comes from the UK. That means UK rate moves feed more directly into its lending numbers compared with banks with more global business.

Santos faces new pressure as oil gains, focus returns to Pikka ramp-up

Santos Limited entered Thursday’s ASX session with another lift from oil prices after closing Wednesday a bit higher. Shares finished at A$7.91, up 0.51% for the day. Brent crude was higher too, adding 2.8% to US$94.06 a barrel. Gains in Brent followed fresh U.S.-Iran worries and bigger-than-forecast U.S. crude inventory declines. Santos finished trading in Sydney before oil prices picked up speed late, so the real test for investors will come at Thursday’s open. That’s when the market will show if the run-up in crude is seen as a cash bump for the oil and LNG player, or just a quick reaction trade, as Santos shifts from construction to production.
