    Please see the expected dividend adjustment figures for a number of our major indices for the week commencing 06th April 2024. These are projected dividends and are likely to change. IG cannot be held responsible for any changes made.
    Dividends highlighted in red include a special dividend, therefore some or all of the amount will not be adjusted. The amount in brackets is the expected adjustment after special dividends are excluded (where shown on major indices). Dividend adjustments due to be posted on a bank holiday will usually be posted on the previous working day.

    Find below the table that shows the number of days' worth of overnight funding fees you will be charged if you keep a Forex position open on a particular day. The overnight funding fee is the cost of holding a position overnight through 10 PM UK time, and it is charged at the end of each trading day. This fee is calculated based on the size of your position and the interest rate differential between the two currencies involved in the trade plus the IG admin fee.
    To help you manage your trading costs and make informed decisions, we have created this table that displays the number of days' worth of overnight funding fee you will be charged. This information can be used to estimate the cost of holding a position over a certain period and to decide whether to keep it open or close it before the end of the trading day. In the future, we will regularly publish this table at the start of each new month.




    Disclaimer:
    Please note that in some cases, the number of days may change due to public holidays or bank holidays. We will do our best to inform you of any changes as soon as possible, but we recommend that you keep an eye on the holiday calendar to avoid any surprises.

    The Week Ahead
    Week commencing 29 April
    Chris Beauchamp's insight
    The presence of a Ferderal Reserve (Fed) meeting, non-farm payrolls and earnings from Amazon and Apple make this week a huge one for the US economy. While the Fed is not expected to change policy, the recent weaker Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and higher price growth data will cast a shadow over their deliberations. Also on the calendar this week will be GDP and consumer price index (CPI) figures from Germany and the eurozone, as well as Chinese purchasing managers index (PMI)s. Earnings continue to come through thick and fast, and along with the tech titans, Pifzer, GSK and McDonald’s all report figures.
