Shares in breakdown service <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cityam.com\/company\/aa\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">AA<\/a> slumped after new management was forced to slash its dividend to invest in its business and replay debts.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Economics<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>UK economic growth was been revised down to 0.4% for the final quarter of 2017 in the second estimate of national income produced by the Office for National Statistics. Slight revisions to the output of growth in both the production and services industries were enough for growth to go from being rounded up to 0.5% to instead being rounded down.<\/p>\n<p>Central bankers appeared less dovish. The minutes of the Federal Reserve\u2019s last rate setting meeting were distinctly hawkish. A majority of Fed policymakers upped growth forecasts in January, making further policy tightening more likely. The minutes of the European Central Bank\u2019s January monetary policy vote also revealed that the governing council\u2019s hawks pushed for a change in the bank\u2019s communications, saying economic conditions were now strong enough to drop a commitment to boost the quantitative easing programme in the event of a slowdown.<\/p>\n<p>There was a rare negative shock for watchers of the German economy. Sentiment among German businesses fell more than expected this month, according to the Ifo survey. Its business climate gauge fell to 115.4 in February, from 117.6 in the previous month. The reading was significantly short of expectations of 117.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Geopolitics<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>UK government ministers met at Chequers, the prime minister\u2019s official country retreat in Buckinghamshire, to thrash out a Brexit strategy. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cityam.com\/people\/theresa-may\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Theresa May<\/a> is expected to make a speech next week on the next phase of exiting the EU.<\/p>\n<p>Robert Mueller, the special counsel investigating claims of Russian political meddling in the US, filed new charges against two former aides to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cityam.com\/people\/donald-trump\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Donald Trump<\/a>.

Iran\u2019s central bank also hinted it was developing a cryptocurrency that would be administered by the state government.<\/p>\n<p>The UK Treasury said it will conduct an inquiry into issues around cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. Launched by the Treasury Committee, the investigation will take several angles including examining the role of cryptocurrencies in Britain, including potential \u201copportunities and risks\u201d for consumers, the business community and government.<\/p>\n<p>France\u2019s financial regulator said that financial products based on cryptocurrencies should be formally regulated as derivatives.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Financials<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It was a big week in the sector, with most of the UK major banks reporting 2017 figures.<strong> HSBC\u2019s<\/strong> annual results were broadly in line with consensus expectations with revenue just 0.3% below the average consensus and profit before tax 1.5% below. The new Chairman, Mark Tucker, is optimistic about the prospects of the global economy and expects markets across Asia to have a strong year in 2018. The bank cautiously expects loan growth around mid-single digit in 2018<\/p>\n<p><strong>Barclays\u2019<\/strong> 2017 results were in line with City expectations, but guidance for the dividend payment in 2018 was better than market consensus. Management expect to pay 6.5p in 2018 compared with a consensus view of 5.3p. Issues with its investment bank continued, with revenues at the unit falling 6% in 2017.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lloyds Banking Group<\/strong> posted results that met expectations and announced a \u00a31bn share buyback. Growth remains elusive. Excluding revenue from MBNA, the credit card business it bought in June 2017, revenue rose just 2.6% year-on-year. Customer loans rose 1% during the year with the mortgage book falling 1% and the commercial loan book 2%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Royal Bank of Scotland<\/strong> broke its ten-year duck and eked out a profit in 2017, thanks in large part to a big fall in litigation and conduct costs. But the bank is still facing a multi-billion dollar penalty from the US Department of Justice, which is now likely to hit profits in 2018. The shares are sat at about 270p apiece, significantly below the average price of 502p a share paid by the UK government in the financial crisis bailout.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RSA Insurance<\/strong> revealed that profits hit a record in 2017 as strong performances in Canada and Scandinavia offset weaker results in the UK. Pre-tax profits rose 12 per cent to \u00a3620m.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Mining<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>BHP Billiton\u2019s<\/strong> interim results were slightly below market expectations, but its dividend was better than hoped. Copper and oil were the main drivers of the increase in profits, while earnings from BHP\u2019s iron ore business were flat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Anglo American<\/strong> declared its highest dividend in a decade as it managed to pay back more debt than expected after commodity prices rallied. Following the statement credit rating agency Moody\u2019s issued a statement saying the miner could be on track for an upgrade.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Glencore\u2019s<\/strong> full-year results were ahead of expectations, with continued progress on debt reduction. Chief executive Ivan Glasenberg said the miner had the financial strength to pursue more acquisitions if opportunities arise, according to its chief executive.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Energy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The oil price continued to recover from its recent wobble. Brent crude futures rose 1.9% over the week to trade just above $66 a barrel at mid-session on Friday. US oil exports jumped to a four-month high, easing concerns about a glut of oil building in US storage. There was a surprise fall in US inventories last week.<\/p>\n<p>Following a disappointing profit warning in the third quarter, energy provider <strong>Centrica<\/strong> reported earning in line with lowered guidance and did well to deliver on targets for 2017. As expected, the dividend was held flat and management is guiding to a similar level in future. The company is to focus on performance delivery and financial discipline in the period 2018-20 and management intends to sell the group\u2019s interest in nuclear generation assets.<\/p>\n<p>With US crude output rising, Garry White explains why the outlook for the oil price could be bearish <a href=\"https:\/\/www.charles-stanley.co.uk\/group\/cs-live\/bad-news-riyadh-oil-rebound-seems-unlikely\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Technology<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A tweet from reality TV star Kylie Jenner, part of the Kardashian clan, wiped $1.3bn of the value of <strong>Snap<\/strong>, the parent of social media app <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cityam.com\/company\/snap-inc\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Snapchat<\/a>. \u201cSooo does anyone else not open Snapchat anymore?

Investors in Finnish-listed games group <strong>Rovio<\/strong> were furious as disappointing 2018 guidance caused its share to fall by almost half.

Market rumours continue to suggest that Reckitt may bid for <strong>Pfizer\u2019s<\/strong> consumer healthcare assets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>InterContinental Hotels<\/strong> released a good set of full-year results, which were towards the upper end of market expectations.
