0800 GMT - AstraZeneca's decision to not upgrade its full-year guidance was a little disappointing given its strong performance, Hargreaves Lansdown's Derren Nathan writes. Its reiterated guidance now looks relatively easy to achieve, Nathan adds. The Anglo-Swedish pharmaceutical giant's share price has been dragged down by fears of U.S. tariffs and policy on drug pricing but the concerns appear to have been overplayed, he adds. Shares trade up 0.5% at 10,840 pence. (adam.whittaker@wsj.com)
