FTSE 100 Movers: Fresnillo bucks mining trend

Miners are among the fallers after the Chinese Purchasing Managers' Index (CPMI) was unchanged from the previous month at 49.9 in September. A reading below 50 signifies a contraction, so the August reading is bad news for miners, as China is a resource hungry country.However, silver miner Fresnillo is bucking the mining trend to lead the risers. Consumer goods tester Intertek, which makes at least 30% of its revenue in China, dropped after the CPMI announcement. Imperial Tobacco was heading higher following rumours that it could be split-up and sold in parts.
