Fragile Fortunes

Title: Fragile Fortunes

Faster U.K. inflation and China growth worries hit London’s FTSE 100 hard

Inflation’s surging tide, a fearsome force unfurled,
Unsettling the markets, where fortunes lay inverted.
Economy’s frail posture, so delicately poised,
Gasping for stability, as global growth recoiled.

Brexit’s maddening dance, casting shadows of doubt,
Fingers clutching at hopes, whispers fading to naught.
Chinese dragon’s slumber, stirring unease afar,
Pulses of anxiety, felt beneath every star.

London’s skyline weeps, as indices take a dive,
Investor’s hearts lurch, fortunes barely alive.
Yet amid this turmoil, resilience finds its might,
Bridging the chasm, turning darkness into light.

The city stands defiant, its spirit undeterred,
Seeking solace in unity, where bonds are conferred.
Through trials and tribulations, new paths will unfurl,
Trading fears for opportunities, as fortunes find their whirl.
