FTSE 100 movers: Rolls-Royce rallies on upgrade; BP under the cosh
(Sharecast News) - London's FTSE 100 was flat at 7,328.37 in afternoon trade on Tuesday. Rolls-Royce was sitting pretty at the top of the index after an upgrade to 'overweight' from 'equalweight' at Barclays, which highlighted a "buying opportunity" after the shares de-rated around 10% in the past month.
BP was under the cosh as the oil giant reported a third-quarter underlying replacement cost profit of $3.3bn, an improvement from $2.6bn in the second quarter but down from $8.2bn in the same period a year earlier and missing forecasts of $4bn.
InterContinental Hotels was knocked lower by a downgrade to 'underweight' from 'neutral' at JPMorgan Cazenove.
In a research note on European hotels, JPM said: "Whilst concerns around weakening demand trends remain on top of investors' mind, as reflected in recent share price weakness at Whitbread and Accor (both down more than 10% in the last 6 weeks), also exacerbated by potential demand pressure in the Middle-East, we have been surprised by the outperformance of IHG, and now see the risk-reward as highly unappealing."
Vodafone was in the red as it announced an agreement to sell its Spanish business to Zegona Communications for up to €5bn.
The companies have also entered into an agreement whereby Vodafone will provide certain services to Vodafone Spain for a total annual service charge of around €110m.
