AIM - LOSERS
----------
Numis Corp PLC, down 3.7% at 286.00p, 12-month range 274.00p-419.86p. Shares hit 12-month low as the corporate broker saw slower start to its second quarter amid damped risk appetite among investors concerned by surging inflation and rising interest rates. Numis says: "Mounting inflation and interest rate concerns have impacted broader equity markets in recent weeks, with a reduction in investor risk appetite and capital markets activity. As such, we have had a slower start to our second quarter, albeit our pipeline and outlook for the second half across both M&A and Capital Markets is encouraging."
