UK Stocks-Factors to watch on May 5

BY Reuters
— 1:03 AM ET 05/05/2022
       May 5 (Reuters) - Britain's FTSE 100 index is seen
opening higher on Thursday, with futures up 1.15%.

    * OCADO (OCDGF): Some 29% of votes cast at Ocado's (OCDGF) annual
shareholder meeting opposed online supermarket and technology
group's plan to extend management incentive scheme beyond its
original five-year term.
    * MONDI (MONDF): Paper and packaging firm said it would
sell its Russian assets, the latest company to exit the country
following Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.
    * STANCHART: Standard Chartered's (SCBFF) pay plans for top
executives were approved by shareholders on Wednesday, but a
sizeable minority of investors voted against them.
    * RIO TINTO: Rio Tinto said any sanctions
on Russian aluminium producer Rusal for Moscow's invasion of
Ukraine would significantly disrupt the aluminium market and
drive prices higher.
    * UK CAR SALES: British new car sales fell about 16% in
April, compared with a year earlier, prompting a downgrade to
the full-year outlook, according to preliminary industry data
released.
    * GOLD: Gold prices climbed more than 1% after U.S. Federal
Reserve Chair Jerome Powell ruled out large, aggressive interest
rate hikes for the year as the central bank seeks to contain
inflation without triggering an economic recession.
    * OIL: Oil prices edged higher, extending gains from the
previous session, as a European Union proposal for new sanctions
against Russia, including an embargo on crude in six months,
offset concerns over Chinese demand.
    * FTSE 100: UK's benchmark equities index declined on
Wednesday, weighed down by weakness in consumer staple and
healthcare shares, while investors awaited the Federal Reserve's
interest rate decision later in the day.
