Week commencing 30 May
Chris Beauchamp’s insight
Now that US earnings season is broadly at an end, aside from HP and Salesforce, the focus for the week moves to US non-farm payrolls on Friday. Chinese PMIs this week are also worth monitoring. The week starts with a US holiday, while it finishes with two UK bank holidays.

Dividends
FTSE 100: Vodafone, National Grid, Scottish Mortgage Inv Trust, Severn Trent
FTSE 250: Synthomer, Hill & Smith, Hilton Food, Alliance Trust, JLEN Environmental Assets, Law Debenture Corp
Dividends are applied after the close of the previous day’s session for each market. So, for example, the FTSE 100 goes ex-dividend on a Thursday, but the adjustment is applied at the close of the previous day, e.g. Wednesday. The table below shows the days in which the adjustment is applied, not the ex-dividend days.
