London midday: Footsie gives up gains

Mon, 22nd Nov 2010 12:06

Footsie has turned lower as the relief over the EU bail-out of Ireland fades.Miners got a boost on hopes the bail-out will stabilise the global economy but are now mixed. Xstrata is slightly higher but BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto are among the fallers. It's a slow start to the week on the company front. But Rolls-Royce has picked up a morale boosting $1.8bn (£1.1bn) engine order from China just weeks after the problems that grounded Airbus A380 super-jumbos around the world.Defence group Qinetiq has nabbed a $2bn five-year deal to provide engineering services to the Kennedy Space Centre in Florida. The contract, with US space agency NASA, is a cost-plus-award-fee contract to begin next March and will run for five years. Go-Ahead chief financial officer Nick Swift is swapping trains and buses for planes as he takes up the same position at British Airways, replacing Keith Williams who becomes chief executive of BA when it merges with Spanish peer Iberia. Mining heavyweight Anglo American has puts its Callide thermal coal mine up for sale. The mine in Central Queensland, a low cost coal producer, will go as part of Anglo's focus on growing its metallurgical coal and high margin export thermal coal businesses.Mitie has grown interim profit by 12% and the outsourcing and asset management group is confident of meeting expectations for the full-year and picking up new government work next year. Profit before tax and one-off items was up to £47.5m in the six months to 30 September from £42.3m a year ago on revenue 15% higher at £918.7m. Estate agent chain Winkworth expects to beat full-year profit forecasts after growing revenue by 20% in the first nine months, but 2011 is expected to be another low volume year, like 2010. Franchise offices enjoyed a strong third quarter, it said Monday, despite low transaction volumes, especially outside London, and a drop in prices compared with the first half. Education solutions provider RM reported record full year profit as growth continues in each of its three divisions. Pre-tax profit rose to £24m for the year to 30 September 2010 from £16.3m the year before. Revenue increased to £380.1m from £346.9m the year before.FTSE 100 - RisersTUI Travel (TT.) 206.30p +2.74%Compass Group (CPG) 538.50p +1.80%Vedanta Resources (VED) 2,243.00p +1.59%Severn Trent (SVT) 1,460.00p +1.46%Capital Shopping Centres Group (CSCG) 371.00p +1.45%Kingfisher (KGF) 248.00p +1.35%Pearson (PSON) 942.00p +1.24%Scottish & Southern Energy (SSE) 1,170.00p +1.21%InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) 1,153.00p +1.05%Sage Group (SGE) 263.00p +0.77%FTSE 100 - FallersRoyal Bank of Scotland Group (RBS) 40.54p -2.94%Legal & General Group (LGEN) 95.70p -1.90%ICAP (IAP) 466.00p -1.89%Lloyds Banking Group (LLOY) 65.50p -1.83%Standard Life (SL.) 219.30p -1.62%Prudential (PRU) 605.50p -1.46%Autonomy Corporation (AU.) 1,398.00p -1.27%Admiral Group (ADM) 1,536.00p -1.16%BG Group (BG.) 1,209.50p -1.02%Inmarsat (ISAT) 684.00p -1.01%FTSE 250 - RisersYell Group (YELL) 12.42p +4.90%Spirax-Sarco Engineering (SPX) 1,844.00p +4.77%Kesa Electricals (KESA) 166.80p +4.32%Taylor Wimpey (TW.) 25.49p +4.04%Mitie Group (MTO) 208.40p +3.68%Enterprise Inns (ETI) 110.10p +3.28%Premier Foods (PFD) 17.39p +3.08%Brown (N.)
