富时100指数周四上涨0.5%，从两个交易日的下跌中恢复过来。主要股票阿斯利康和汇丰控股上涨超过1%，联合利华上涨0.9%。另一方面，花旗分析师指出，3i的主要控股公司折扣零售商Action的业绩疲软，导致3i股价下跌超过4%。Sage Group也拖累该指数，因收入增长低于预期，下跌近4%。能源巨头英国石油公司和壳牌公司分别下跌3.3%和1.7%，原因是全球原油市场供应过剩的担忧日益加剧，油价下跌。在数据方面，国内数据显示，英国第一季度经济增长0.7%，为一年来最高。更强劲的读数减轻了英格兰银行大幅降息的压力，导致市场略微降低了对货币宽松的预期。

The FTSE 100 rose 0.5% on Thursday, recovering from two sessions of losses. Major stocks AstraZeneca and HSBC Holdings added by over 1%, and Unilever increased 0.9%. On the other hand, 3i dropped over 4% following signs of weaker performance from its key holding, discount retailer Action, flagged by Citi analysts. Sage Group also weighed on the index, falling nearly 4% as its revenue growth came in below expectations. Energy giants BP and Shell declined 3.3% and 1.7%, respectively, amid a slide in oil prices driven by growing concerns of oversupply in global crude markets. On the data front, domestic data showed the UK economy grew by 0.7% in Q1, the most in one year. The stronger reading reduced pressure on the Bank of England to cut rates aggressively, causing markets to slightly pare back expectations for monetary easing.
