Barclays gives up yesterday gains as the risk-off sentiment weigh on risky assets today. FTSE 100 gives up almost 1.25% as the banking sector is under selling pressure. The rising number of coronavirus infections increase the fears of second coronavirus wave that would halt the recent global economic recovery.
Barclays (BARC) will release the earnings report on Wednesday, July 29th, 2020. The company hasn’t provided any guidance for the revenues and earnings amid the coronavirus crisis.
Most analysts expect Barclays UK and the international Consumer, Cards & Payments business to experience lower revenues and profits from the low rates environment and the economic slowdown caused by the coronavirus outbreak. The bank will not pay any divided as the Central Bank of England has suspended all divided due to the coronavirus crisis.
