MILAN, Aug 7 (Reuters) - Britain's top share index rose onTuesday as miners and oil stocks tracked rising commodityprices, although some disappointing updates including fromIntertek and Hargreaves kept a lid on gains.
The FTSE 100 ended the session up 0.7 percent at7,718.48, following a flat close in the previous day whenworries over Britain's exit from the EU weighed. The mid-capFTSE 250 index added 0.2 percent.
Oil majors BP and Royal Dutch Shell bothrose more than 1 percent as oil prices gained, withre-introduced U.S. sanctions against major crude exporter Iranexpected to tighten global supply.
Miners Rio Tinto, BHP and Glencorejumped between 1 percent and nearly 4 percent. Metal prices alsogained, with copper prices edging higher, aided by a weakerdollar.
"While reciprocal GBP (pound) strength is typically a FTSEburden, today the opposing USD (dollar) move is proving morepowerful, improving FTSE risk appetite," Mike van Dulken, headof research at Accendo Markets, said.
The biggest moves, however, were among companies thatreported results, most of which disappointed investors.
Shares in Intertek fell 9.8 percent to the bottomof the FTSE after first-half earnings at the product testingcompany fell short of market expectations.
Analysts at Jefferies affirmed their buy rating on thestock, saying margins were still good, although they expectedconsensus estimates to be trimmed to reflect the acquisition oftraining software firm Alchemy last week.
Shares in Hargreaves Lansdown fell more than 4percent, as waning confidence among investors and rising coststook the shine off a record-breaking year for British fundsupermarket.
Hargreaves said total assets rose 16 percent to a record91.6 billion pounds in the year to the end of June. Someanalysts said the flows had lagged forecasts.
InterContinental Hotels Group was also among the topfallers, down 3 percent, following its results.
Mid-cap Domino's Pizza reported an increase inoverall half-year sales, but profits were weighed down byinvestments overseas, sending its shares down 9.7 percent.
"Whilst the stock has already been weak into results, webelieve the slower LFL (like-for-like) growth, weaker profitgrowth and store opening run-rate will be a concern," said UBSanalysts.
The stock led mid-cap fallers and posted its biggest one-dayfall since March 2017.(Reporting by Danilo Masoni and Kit Rees; Editing by MarkPotter)
