ft 4 nov 98 London unmoved by Brown's speech The chancellor of the exchequer's pre-Budget speech helped turn the FTSE into negative territory, but Gordon Brown's forecast of 1-1.5 per cent growth for the UK for 1999 had limited lasting effect on the market. The FTSE 100 closed down 21.6 points, or 0.4 per cent, at 5,503.9. Marks and Spencer, the UK retailer, saw its shares slump by more than 10 per cent to 404½p after worse-than-expected interim results.
