Hedge funds target UK stocks after Andy Burnham economic pledge
The shift follows Prime Minister Andy Burnham’s promise of a new economic model, which CNBC says could open more trading opportunities across UK equities.
Hedge funds are looking more closely at U.K. stocks after Prime Minister Andy Burnham pledged to pursue a new economic model, according to CNBC Markets and CNBC World.
The outlets said the planned overhaul of Britain’s domestic policy could create trading opportunities in a range of U.K. equities as investors reposition for potential policy changes.
While the focus is on stock markets, the driving theme is the policy direction Burnham outlined, which the coverage suggests could influence how investors price shares across sectors in the U.K. market.
