Daily Stock Market Report (Thur 2nd April 2026) - SATS, BPM, TRCS

Good morning! This is the final report until Tuesday 7th.
In the latest overnight moves, Brent Crude is up over $6 at $107, due to some aggressive rhetoric from Trump on Iran ("over the next two to three weeks, we’re going to bring them back to the stone ages where they belong.”).
EU natural gas prices are spiking 8% higher as a result, but are still some distance off the highs reached in March:

As for stocks, the FTSE is set to open lower by less than 1%, giving back yesterday's gains at 10,270, while other indices are faring worse: the German DAX is lower by nearly 2%, and the Samp;P is lower by 1.4%.

Today's Agenda is complete.
