UK WINNERS & LOSERS SUMMARY: Cineworld Falls On Warner Streaming Plans

Fri, 04th Dec 2020 10:33

(Alliance News) - The following stocks are the leading risers and fallers within the main London indices on Friday.

----------

FTSE 100 - WINNERS

----------

BP, up 3.3%. The oil major was the best performing FTSE 100 stock after members of the OPEC+ cartel struck a deal to increase production over the coming months, but by less than anticipated in their previous accord.

----------

SSE, up 3.0%. The Perth, Scotland-based utility is selling a 10% stake in the UK Dogger Bank A and B project to Italian oil major Eni for GBP202.5 million. Eni will buy another 10% stake from Norway's Equinor to have 20% alongside SSE's 40% and Equinor's 40%.

----------

FTSE 100 - LOSERS

----------

Rolls-Royce, down 3.5%. The jet engine maker was the worst-performing blue chip stock, giving back some of this week's bumper gains. It had risen 16% on Thursday as positive vaccine developments boosted the prospects of global travel. The aerospace stock remains up 54% in the past month, though down 46% in the past year.

----------

FTSE 250 - WINNERS

----------

Micro Focus International, up 10%. The software firm was on Thursday touted by Amazon Web Services as one of the businesses that can help companies migrate data to the cloud. AWS noted Micro's deployment environment software which it provided to Kmart Australia.

----------

Premier Oil, up 6.7%. Like BP, the mid-cap oil company's shares rose following Thursday's OPEC+ meeting.

----------

FTSE 250 - LOSERS

----------

Cineworld Group, down 11%. AT&T subsidiary Warner Bros will release its entire 2021 slate of movies on HBO Max streaming and in theatres simultaneously, including "The Matrix 4" and Denis Villeneuve's "Dune" remake, the studio announced in a landmark response to the pandemic Thursday. The "hybrid model" will see films available on HBO Max streaming in the US for one month from the date of their theatrical release.

----------

OTHER MAIN MARKET AND AIM - WINNERS

----------

N4 Pharma, up 52%. The Chellaston, England-based pharmaceutical company made further gains after it announced on Thursday that cancer drug Nuvec can be freeze dried and stored for 14 day without a significant drop in performance. N4 Pharma said Nuvec formulations which had been freeze dried and then stored for 14 days, either at room temperature or at four degrees celsius, showed no significant drop in in vitro transfection capability following its reconstitution.

----------

Hunters Property, up 44%. The Yorkshire-based estate agent confirmed it received a preliminary approach from Property Franchise Group over a potential takeover offer. Property Franchise shares were down 5.5%.

----------

OTHER MAIN MARKET AND AIM - LOSERS

----------

Petro Matad, down 8.7%. The oil firm said a meeting on the awarding of the Block XX exploitation licence in Mongolia has been postponed due to lockdown measures.
