Banks Drop as Budget Measures Disappoint Investors -- Market Talk
1421 GMT - Banking stocks drop after the U.K. budget statement, which didn't offer many surprises over and above details leaked beforehand, GAM Investments says. Finance minister Rishi Sunak announced plans to cut an 8% surcharge on bank profits over GBP25 million to 3% from April 2023. "It was hoped that the banking surcharge was going to be cut, but Sunak has retained the 3% levy, so banking stocks are the biggest loser from today's budget," GAM Investment Director Charles Hepworth says. Barclays, HSBC and NatWest Group drop and other financial stocks also lose ground. "U.K. equities still remain a pretty unloved regional play for global investors. The scarring of Brexit is still a haunting concern for many," Hepworth says. (philip.waller@wsj.com)

格林威治時間1421GMT-GAM Investments表示,英國預算聲明發布後,銀行類股下跌,除了事先泄露的細節之外,這份聲明並沒有提供太多驚喜。財政部長孫中裏(Rishi Sunak)宣佈,計劃從2023年4月起,將對2500萬英鎊以上銀行利潤徵收8%的附加費,降至3%。GAM投資總監Charles Hepworth稱,“原本希望降低銀行附加費,但Sunak保留了3%的徵費,因此銀行股是今天預算中最大的輸家.”巴克萊(Barclays)、滙豐(HSBC)和NatWest Group下跌,其他金融股也下跌。赫普沃思説:“對於全球投資者來説,英國股市仍然是一個相當不受歡迎的地區。英國退歐留下的傷疤仍然是許多人揮之不去的擔憂。”(Philip.waller@wsj.com)
