The FTSE 100 is set to jump at the open on Tuesday ahead of a hearing with incoming US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who is expected to tell lawmakers the US economy could suffer if they do not approve a big spending plan. Equities should maintain a favorable tailwind today but watch out for UK CPI tomorrow as a weak print could reignite talk of negative rates at the BoE.
Support: 6750 / 6700
Resistance: 6800/ 6840
