SP was pushed up by the rise in Gold and Silver prices. Then in the last half hour Fres pulled back 2% . Yet Gold and Silver maintained their rise. So only reason that I see was a deliberate pull back. I know others took the same view. Maybe we are just a bit paranoid.
Yes yesterday's market cap figure was used. Personally believe price brought down in the last half hour from 595 to 582 just enough to take us below kingfisher market cap. Manipulation at its finest.
Up to about 10 past 4, Kingfisher would have left the ftse100. Price brought down and Fres will now leave. £26 million difference in market cap. All stinks to me.
The price drop could be due to the election on the 27th of this month. Investors have been pulling away from argentine stocks, currency and bonds since the results of the primaries in August. Hopefully things settle down.
