FTSE 250 movers: Food and hospitality chains rally; Capricorn falls
(Sharecast News) - London's FTSE 250 was up 0.6% at 18,733.18 in afternoon trade on Tuesday. Hospitality and food chains Mitchells & Butlers, Domino's, Greggs and Wetherspoon were all up as investors welcomed the prospect of a potential freeze on energy bills. Homeware retailer Dunelm also advanced. The hope no doubt is that if energy bills are lower, consumer will spend a little more on discretionary items.
Capricorn Energy lost ground as it posted a narrowing of its operating losses for the first half but cut its full-year production outlook after it drilled fewer wells in Egypt than expected in the first half.
In the six months to the end of June, operating losses narrowed to $37.3m from $47.4m in the same period a year earlier.
The oil and gas exploration and development company - which agreed in June to be bought by Tullow Oil in a £1.5bn deal - downgraded full-year production guidance to between 33,000 and 36,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day, from between 37,000 and 43,000.
