The market continues to slowly edge up as measured by the FTSE 100 although corporate news remains mixed. It is disappointing to see a profit warning from Card Factory this morning although given the recent uncertainty in the economy maybe it is not too much of a surprise. Following on from the news that Evoke is to undertake a strategic review which may involve the disposal of all or some parts of its business, it is clear that things are not all rosy in the UK market. The impact of the Budget appears to have been greater than many observers think with consumer confidence falling because of the uncertainty caused.
