Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange during morning trading on May 17, 2024 in New York City. London stocks closed lower and the pound jumped on news that Britain’s Consumer Prices Index rose 2.3 percent in April, slower than the previous month but outpacing analyst expectations of 2.1 percent.

Anticipation was high heading into the day owing to results from artificial intelligence highflier Nvidia.The chip-maker’s stock price is up 90 percent in 2024 with its high-end processors prized by firms looking to get ahead in the booming artificial intelligence sector.
