----------
SMALL-CAP - WINNERS
----------
Pendragon PLC, up 2.1% at 18.84 pence, 12-month range 7.00p-21.50p. Shares in the motor retailer rise despite figures showing new UK vehicle registrations declined in August. However, figures from the Society of Motor Manufacturers & Traders showed a boost in demand for electric vehicles.

Fidelity Japan Trust PLC, up 3.9% at 250.32 pence, 12-month range 180.00p-250.36p. Shares in Japan-focused investors climb, tracking Tokyo's Nikkei 225 higher. The Tokyo benchmark continues its advance in the wake of Japan's Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga announcing he will not run for his ruling party's leadership, effectively ending his tenure and throwing wide open the race for the next premier. Fidelity Japan hits this 12-month high on Monday. FTSE 250-listed Baillie Gifford Japan Trust PLC rises 1.9%.
