FTSE Stocks to Watch: Ocado, WOSG, Barratt Redrow & Wise — What to Expect

London’s corporate calendar swings into a higher gear this week, with investors zeroing in on updates from Ocado Group, Watches of Switzerland, Barratt Redrow and Wise — a cross-section of retail, housing and fintech that should offer a timely read on UK consumer and economic health.

Ocado Group

Ocado Group reports half-year results on Thursday, and all eyes will be on whether the online grocery and robotics group can finally deliver on its long-promised path to positive cash flow.

Having already flagged roughly 1,000 job cuts as part of a cost-cutting drive, management will need to show that its Solutions technology licensing arm is winning fresh warehouse contracts to offset sluggish retail volumes.

5.0

Open Account Spread bets and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 68% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading spread bets and CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how spread bets and CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

Watches of Switzerland

Watches of Switzerland, meanwhile, faces a trickier backdrop after new US tariffs on Swiss imports jolted the luxury watch trade earlier this year.

Its trading update will be scrutinised for signs that resilient US demand — which drove double-digit sales growth last year — can absorb any pass-through pricing pressure, alongside how UK and European showrooms are faring against a cautious consumer.

Barratt Redrow

Barratt Redrow, the housebuilder formed from last year’s merger, issues a trading statement as the sector watches for early signs of a spring-selling bounce.

After a “stable” first-half performance that reaffirmed full-year guidance, investors want confirmation that reservation rates and build-cost inflation remain on track, particularly with mortgage rates still weighing on buyer sentiment.

Wise

Rounding out the week, Wise — the London-listed money-transfer fintech — delivers its first-quarter update for the new financial year.

Following a strong FY2026 showing, the market will look for continued momentum in cross-border payment volumes and evidence that margins are holding up as competition in international transfers intensifies.
