FTSE 100 movers: ICG climbs to the top; miners fall

(Sharecast News) - London's FTSE 100 was up 0.8% at 7,097.95 in afternoon trade on Friday, ending a turbulent week in a pretty quiet fashion, with traders most likely opting to enjoy a few beers in the blazing hot sunshine. Intermediate Capital Group was the standout gainer on the index, closely followed by online supermarket Ocado.

On the downside, heavily-weighted miners - which are cyclical - were the worst performers amid worries about a recession after a spate of central bank rate hikes. Rio Tinto and Antofagasta were both weaker.

LSE and Harbour Energy were both in the red following strong gains earlier in the week. On Thursday, Harbour Energy rallied after announcing a $200m share buyback programme, while LSE was boosted on Wednesday by an upgrade to 'buy' at UBS.
