Oct 2 (Reuters) - Britain's FTSE 100 .FTSE index is seen opening down 35
points to 7,325 on Wednesday, according to financial bookmakers.
*C4X DISCOVERY: Britain's C4X Discovery C4XD.L said on Tuesday it was
confident of striking partnership deals for its programmes in therapy areas such
as sickle cell, cancer and inflammation, sending the AIM-listed company's shares
up 5%. IWG: WeWork's decision to abandon its initial public offering and the
resulting turmoil at the shared office space provider has created an opportunity
for major competitor IWG IWG.L , said IWG's founder and Chief Executive Mark
Dixon. RYANAIR: Company RYA.I can wait out price rises sought by planemakers
since the global grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX, the Irish airline's boss said
on Tuesday. GOLD: Gold prices inched up on Wednesday, after rising as much as 1% in
the previous session, as dismal U.S. manufacturing data fanned fears of a sharp
global economic slowdown and stoked bets of further interest rate
cuts. OIL: Oil rebounded from several days of declining values after industry
data showed a surprise drop in U.S. crude inventories, offsetting weak economic
readings in the United States that have depressed global stock
markets. The UK blue chip index closed down 0.7% lower on Tuesday, reversing gains
from earlier in the day, coming under pressure following disappointing
