FTSE 100 Movers: Lloyds rising high after FT report

Wed, 21st Sep 2011 13:03

Lloyds Banking was topping the leaderboard after a report from the Financial Times which said that the firm is set to sell a portfolio of commercial property loans worth around £1bn. Lloyds has declined to comment on the matter. Mining giant Rio Tinto saw a drop in its share price after reporting that some customers have asked for deliveries of metals to be delayed, signalling that global economic weakness is hitting demand for commodities.Analysts at Citigroup said that, while Rio Tinto's order books are full and it is shipping "flat out", customer sentiment has become more cautious due to concerns over industrial economies and volatility in financial markets. Fears over the outcome of the U.S. Federal Reserve meeting left miners and other commodities edging lower. Antofagasta fell the hardest, closely followed by Xstrata. Investors are looking to see if a move by the Federal Reserve will take steps to stimulate the US economy.
