FTSE 100 movers: IHG boosted by broker note; miners slump

Fri 16 Jan 2026 14:27

(Sharecast News) - London's FTSE 100 was down 0.1% at 10,227.78 in afternoon trade on Friday. InterContinental Hotels gained after an initiation at 'outperform' by CICC.

Defence firms BAE Systems and Rolls-Royce rallied as Nato personnel from a number of European countries landed in Greenland for an exercise after Trump restated his desire to own the island.

Neil Wilson, UK investor strategist at Saxo Markets, said it was "hardly a show of force, but a reminder of what's at stake here".

The gains also came amid news the UK will open a business centre in Kyiv this year to help defence start-ups send more military hardware into Ukraine.

On the downside, miners Anglo American, Antofagasta, Glencore and Rio Tinto all fell as copper prices lost ground on reports that Chinese regulators have ordered exchanges to remove servers operated by high frequency traders from their data centres.
