FTSE 100 movers: ECB bond-buying plan spurs risk appetite

Thu, 06th Sep 2012 15:33

The heavyweight mining and banking sectors rejoiced the European Central Bank's (ECB's) bond-buying plan on Thursday with investors hoping that this could mark a turning point in the ongoing Eurozone debt crisis.Vedanta, Antofagasta and Randgold were leading the charge in the resource sector while lenders Lloyds and Barclays also jumped.Hotel, restaurant and Costa coffee owner Whitbread jumped after reporting second-quarter sales growth of 14.8%, up from 13.9% in the first three months of the year. Investec said that the Whitbread "offers compelling value for a stock with impressive roll-out potential, strong asset backing and impressive trading momentum." Supermarket group Morrisons also rose after pre-tax profits in the first half came in 3% ahead of consensus estimates. Jefferies said this morning that the stock is trading at an "unjustified" discount to supermarket peers in the UK and Europe. Just a handful on the Footsie were in the red today with Imperial Tobacco extending losses from yesterday when it was reported that France may be considering a plain packaging law and price hikes for cigarettes packets.
