GRAPHIC-Seismograph: Brexit-sensitive financial prices in critical week
Sterling, shares in British banks and even German and Irish government bonds are among the financial assets most sensitive to Brexit developments as long-running negotiations on Britain's departure from the European Union enter a crucial week. The pound surged as much as 1.5% on Tuesday to a near five-month high of $1.28 after Bloomberg reported British and EU negotiators were close to a Brexit draft deal. The British currency enjoyed its best week since 2017 last week after Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Irish counterpart Leo Varadkar said they could see "a pathway" for an agreement for Britain to leave the EU by Oct. 31.

UK homebuilder Barratt battles Brexit price pressure
Shares in the Midlands-based builder slid as much as 4% in morning trade after it stuck by its medium-term financial targets, but said forward sales were down in value in the first 15 weeks of the year starting in July. "Whilst there is economic and political uncertainty, we continue to be disciplined and have a strong balance sheet and cash position," Barratt said. UK house price growth has been flattening off for months as buyers worry the split might bring a deeper shock while outright falls in prices in London have driven developers to change strategy to cope.

Britain's mid-cap index surged nearly 2% on Friday as hopes grew that a Brexit deal may be clinched by the end of the month, while a rally in blue-chip financial stocks and housebuilders helped the FTSE 100 reverse earlier losses. The FTSE 250 jumped 1.9% and was on course for its best day since January by 0953 GMT.
