UK sets autumn budget for Nov. 26

"UK Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves announced that the autumn budget will take place on 26 November, a month later than the typical timeframe. Investors worry the UK government will prioritize tax hikes over spending cuts to shore up the fiscal position."
