Why second-line need not mean secind-rate

Article Abstract:

The performance of United Kingdom medium firms' stocks, measured by the FTSE 250, has been better than that of larger firms measured by the FTSE 100. This trend could continue, but there is no guarantee. The FTSE 100 could benefit from merger speculation, which could lead it to perform better than the FTSE 250, and smaller firms could be worse hit by a market downturn than larger firms since they are seen as riskier. A drop in pound sterling could, however, benefit FTSE 250 stocks.

UK earnings growth looks set to slow in 1996, and there is concern that the UK business cycle could be reaching a peak.
