FTSE 100 Rises as Asia Stocks Recover After China Cuts Key Interest Rate
0753 GMT - The FTSE 100 rises 1.5% to 7410 points following a rebound in Asian stocks after China cut its five-year loan prime rate 15 basis points to 4.45% to support the economy. "While the move is not seen as sufficient to overcome the more general headwinds of regional lockdowns and a lack of consumer demand for the quarter, it nonetheless shows something of a sympathetic ear from the Chinese authorities which could lead to more monetary easing in the near future," Interactive Investor analyst Richard Hunter says in a note. China-exposed stocks including insurer Prudential and mining shares are among the FTSE 100's top risers. Speciality chemicals group Croda International gains 3.3% after saying 2022 trading has been strong. (renae.dyer@wsj.com)
