* Trade worries weigh for 2nd session
* Ocado surges on Aeon partnership
Nov 29 (Reuters) - London's FTSE 100 slipped for a second
straight day on fears that the U.S. ratification of a law
backing Hong Kong protesters would dent progress made in trade
talks with China, even as Ocado outshone after a partnership
with Japan's Aeon.
The main index .FTSE gave up 0.5% by 0803 GMT, as
trade-sensitive stocks such as Asia-focussed HSBC HSBA.L and
miners .FTNMX1770 weighed. The mid-cap FTSE 250 .FTMC was
flat by 0810 GMT.
Blue-chip online grocer Ocado OCDO.L jumped 13%, on track
for its best day since May 2018, after signing a technology
partnership with Japan's biggest supermarket operator, Aeon Co
Ltd 8267.T .
