LONDON, Oct 11 (Reuters) - Hopes that Britain will seal a
Brexit deal pushed London-listed companies with exposure to the
domestic economy to a premium over London's blue-chip index for
the first time since May, in a major reversal of fortunes for
the much-shunned market.
JP Morgan's UK domestic plays index that tracks about 30 UK
stocks that make all or most of their revenue at home
.JPDEUKDM was up as much as 5% at 0939 GMT, set for its best
day since the basket was created nearly three years ago.
The index was outperforming the FTSE 100 .FTSE by 2.1%,
rising to a premium over the blue-chip index for the first time
since May.
A JP Morgan index that follows UK-listed companies making
their money abroad .JPDEUKEX was down 0.7% and lagging the
domestic index.
