Shares are struggling to move into the blue on a sluggish day's trading, with IPOs hogging much of the limelight.AIA, the Asian arm of the American insurance giant AIG, is raising $20.5bn from the float, which it priced at HK$19.68, at the top of the indicated range. The price values AIA at $30.5bn - exactly matching the price Prudential eventually baulked at paying earlier this year after months of shilly-shallying.Meanwhile online betting firm Betfair has priced its London float at 1,300p, valuing it at a more modest £1.39bn.Legal & General was red-faced this morning as it revealed its third quarter results more than two weeks early after it sent them to analysts last night by mistake. Included were figures revealing total worldwide new business on an annual premium equivalent (APE) basis of £466m in the three months to 30 September, taking the nine-month number to £1.35bn, up 27% on 2009. Elsewhere, BSkyB is higher after it added more customers than expected in the first quarter, boosting revenue by 15% and profit by 25%, but there's no word on News Corp's bid to take over the satellite broadcaster.

African Barrick Gold's profit fell 8% during the third quarter and revenue dipped 1%. Net income dropped to $40m during the three months to 30 September from $43m a year ago and sales of $209m compare with $211m in 2009.
