Thursday's market movers and shakers
Liz Truss’s resignation hasn’t triggered major moves in the markets. The FTSE 100 had edged up 0.27% to 6,943.91 while the more UK-slanted FTSE 250 has risen more, up 0.82% to 17,398.93, but that’s still not a huge rise. Gilt yields also haven’t changed much, edging down 0.008 percentage points to 3.86%. The biggest move was a rise in the pound, up 0.95% at 1.13.
In today’s movers we look at why one of the UK’s few remaining large tech stocks has jumped 7% today, and we also cover a good day for the oil sector.
