In the news this morning, intu’s planned trading update gets the once over after it was brought forward a week.
The general consensus was that the bullish update set out to defend intu’s portfolio of shopping centres and reassure the market as it scrambles to save its planned £3.4bn tie-up with Hammerson.
Elsewhere, a rare sunny day dawned on the high street with both Primark and JD Sports reporting positive results.
