FTSE 100 movers: Takeover talk dominates
Tue, 7 Sep 2010, 14:55:00
Takeover rumours continue to dominate the Footsie. There is talk of engineer <b>Invensys</b> becoming the subject of a 350p a share bid from a larger rival, while there is thought to be Chinese interest in <b>Tullow Oil</b> with a £20 a share bid figure suggested. The bid rumour-mongers appear to have moved on from <b>Cable & Wireless Worldwide</b>, which has been hit by profit-taking. <b>Barclays</b> is lower after it was confirmed that Bob Diamond is going to take over as chief executive next year. He will succeed John Varley. <b>BAE Systems</b> is paying an initial $25m for US-based OASYS Technology. There could be further payments of up to $30m for the electro-optical systems manufacturer. <b>FTSE 100 - Risers</b> Invensys (ISYS) 265.50p +5.95% Tullow Oil (TLW) 1,209.00p +2.28% Severn Trent (SVT) 1,363.00p +2.25% British Airways (BAY) 224.50p +1.68% Randgold Resources (RRS) 6,085.00p +1.16% United Utilities Group (UU.) 591.50p +0.77% African Barrick Gold (ABG) 599.00p +0.76% GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) 1,256.50p +0.60% BAE Systems (BA.) 324.20p +0.53% Morrison (Wm) Supermarkets (MRW) 290.40p +0.35% <b>FTSE 100 - Fallers</b> Cable & Wireless Worldwide (CW.) 69.90p -3.92% Man Group (EMG) 227.40p -3.40% SEGRO (SGRO) 266.20p -3.20% Barclays (BARC) 313.60p -2.87% Capital Shopping Centres Group (CSCG) 348.50p -2.76% Amec (AMEC) 919.00p -2.55% Eurasian Natural Resources (ENRC) 853.50p -2.51% Aggreko (AGK) 1,475.00p -2.51% ICAP (IAP) 421.70p -2.36% Rio Tinto (RIO) 3,430.00p -2.28%
