Falling close to 30% year to date, Frasers Group has found its way to our worst momentum ranking for the first time this year. The British retailer’s shares dropped more than 10% last Thursday after it announced that revenue would be lower than expected. The company reportedly attributed this shortfall to weakened consumer confidence and a more challenging business climate stemming from the Labour government’s Budget in October. This downward trend in its share price also led to its removal from the FTSE 100 in the latest rebalancing update. St. James’s Place and DS Smith continued to perform strongly, securing the top spots among the best performers for 5th consecutive week. NatWest Group and Marks and Spencer joined the ranking this week, with NatWest sustaining its upward trajectory following its Q3 report. Marks and Spencer's half-year results, released in early November, highlighted a 17.2% increase in profit before tax and market share growth across its Food and Clothing & Home divisions.
