Spread Betting Review
“Buy trades jumped by more than a fifth this week, while sells fell by more than half, as investors took advantage of a decline in the FTSE 100.
“This fall was spurred by new fears about the pace of the global recovery and the financial health of Europe’s banks.
“Oil exploration stocks remained popular, driven by news from wells as far apart as New Zealand and the North Sea.
“Connaught plc (CNT) entered the top ten as public spending cuts in the Emergency Budget led the social housing provider to issue a profit warning on Friday afternoon.
“Trading volumes in BP plc (BP) continued to return to more normal levels in the week ended 29 June, though the super-major remained at the head of the top ten buys list amid speculation that the company may be a takeover target.
“Buy trades in BP stock outnumbered sells by more than four to one as the company lost its position at the head of the top ten sells list to Lloyds Banking Group (LLOY).
“Banking stocks accounted for much of the increase in buys this week, with buy trades in Barclays (BARC) more than trebling, while buys in Lloyds stock more than doubled.
“Speculation around various drilling results helped to keep the energy exploration sector in focus, with oil juniors accounting for more than half of the top ten sells list.
“Rockhopper Exploration (RKH) moved up to number four, while fellow South Atlantic junior Falkland Oil & Gas (FOGL) joined both the top ten buys and top ten sells ahead of results from its Toroa well expected in early July.
“Encore Oil (EO) was prominent among the buys and the sells after drilling showed its Catcher discovery could be the largest in the North Sea in years.
“Kea Petroleum (KEA) remained in the top ten sells after the company said on Friday that it has decided to suspend its Beluga-1 well off New Zealand and drill a deviated hole targeting potentially more productive sands.”
