The British pound dropped sharply Wednesday as Parliament resumed, a day after a Supreme Court ruling that the prorogation was unlawful.
The pound dropped to $1.2384 from $1.2491 on Tuesday.
The attorney general, Geoffrey Cox, said that there will be an election motion coming shortly. The Fixed Term Parliament Act requires two-thirds support to hold an early election, and so far the Labour Party has declined to grant an election to Prime Minister Boris Johnson with polls showing Conservatives with a solid lead.
The FTSE 100 meanwhile fell 0.5% to 7254.79, a loss that wasn't as steep as the rest of Europe.
Gainers included two tobacco companies, British American Tobacco (BATS.LN) and Imperial Brands (IMB.LN) , both of which rose after the Altria-Philip Morris deal talks collapsed (http://www.marketwatch.com/story/philip-morris-and-altria-merger-talks-are-off-as-juul-ceo-steps-down-amid-vaping-fears-2019-09-25).
U.K. grocery chain J Sainsbury (SBRY.LN) rose 2% as the company reported improving sales momentum as same-store sales excluding fuel slipped 0.2% in the second quarter. At its capital markets day, it said it can structurally reduce costs by around GBP500 million over five years. It said full-year underlying pretax profit will be in line with expectations.
Aston Martin Lagonda (AML.LN) shares fell 5% after pricing a $150 million debt offering. The notes will pay 12%, and an option to draw up to $100 million will yield 15% if tapped.
