The events in the Middle East are beginning to have some effect with both WH Smith and J Sainsbury warning that these are going to have an adverse effect on profits going forward. Shares in the former are down over 10% this morning as the company suspends its interim dividend whilst those in the latter are down 5% as the company’s forecast for profits in the current year fall short of expectations. The FTSE 100 is down over 80 points in mid-morning trade as a result but if other companies follow suit with negative news then further market weakness seems likely.
