FTSE 250 movers: Tullow, Capricorn hit by downgrade

(Sharecast News) - FTSE 250 19,306.55, -0.10%

Jefferies has downgraded its ratings for UK-listed oil and gas operator peers Tullow Oil and Capricorn Energy as part of its review of the sector on Thursday.

"Bottom-up review of International E&P operational delivery, shareholder returns, growth strategy and executive management tenure allows us to establish the stocks we see as having the strategic vision, capability and capital to deliver market-beating equity returns in the future," Jefferies said in a research note.

However, the broker has reviewed its recommendations for those stocks where its sees growth and returns as "constrained".

Workspace Group fell after trading without entitlement to a dividend as did Big Yellow, Murray International Trust, QinetiQ Group and Dr Martens.
