Etihad Orders 10 Boeing Jets, Raising Talk of Hard-to-Get 787 Slots

Etihad Orders 10 Boeing Jets, Raising Talk of Hard-to-Get 787 Slots

Etihad Airways is nearing a deal for 10 more Boeing 787 jets, according to people briefed on the matter. The order would boost the Abu Dhabi carrier’s long-haul fleet, as early slots for wide-body deliveries are tight. Wide-bodies are twin-aisle planes mostly used for international routes. Reuters said the deal might be unveiled at the July 20-24 Farnborough Airshow, but sources said talks are still ongoing. Etihad and Boeing both declined to comment. The warning is getting more airtime these days — investors are watching not just how many jets sell, but which airlines can actually secure deliveries fast enough to cash in.

Anglo American Rallies 6%, Trades on Thin Volume

Anglo American Rallies 6%, Trades on Thin Volume

Anglo American plc bounced 5.83% to 3,578p in London on Thursday, recovering some ground after a sharp midweek drop. Trading volume stayed orderly. Davy put the quote at 17:08 BST, about 20 minutes delayed, after the London Stock Exchange session closed at 16:30. This matters because Anglo’s stock isn’t just about metals trading. It’s also the currency for its planned deal with Teck Resources Ltd. Every move in Anglo’s share price changes the value of that all-share offer. Teck said one Teck share will swap for 1.3301 Anglo shares under the deal.

Apertura Energy Stock Surges 24% With No Fresh RNS as Venezuela Oil Bet Comes Into View

Apertura Energy Stock Surges 24% With No Fresh RNS as Venezuela Oil Bet Comes Into View

Apertura Energy Plc shares jumped in late London trading on Thursday, with the small Main Market stock quoted at 98p to sell and 102p to buy after opening at 82.5p. Hargreaves Lansdown showed the market still open and marked the move at 17.5p, or 21.2%, while AJ Bell showed a 19.5p, or 23.6%, rise on volume of 61,598 shares. Why this matters now is that the move did not follow a fresh company statement. The regulatory-news tape for Apertura showed no announcement after a June 30 filing on voting rights, leaving the day’s price action to trade around expectations rather than a confirmed asset deal, financing or operating update.

Domino’s Pizza Stock Gets Another Warning Before Its July 20 Earnings Test

ANN ARBOR, Michigan, July 9, 2026, 10:01 EDT Domino’s Pizza shares edged lower Thursday after TD Cowen cut its price target on the stock to $295 from $350 and kept a Hold rating, the latest downshift before the pizza chain reports second-quarter results on July 20. The shares were recently trading around $301, little changed to slightly lower in morning U.S. trading.

New Zealand Rate Hike Pushes Up Floating Home Loan Rates

New Zealand Rate Hike Pushes Up Floating Home Loan Rates

Westpac, ASB and BNZ raised floating mortgage rates after the Reserve Bank of New Zealand bumped its official cash rate up to 2.50%—the country’s first increase in over three years. The central bank signaled it may need to tighten further. The OCR is the main rate the central bank uses to guide inflation, and banks tend to push those changes onto mortgage rates, business loans, and savings. So this week’s call isn’t just a technical central-bank tweak—it means a real shift in cash flow for households facing higher food, fuel, and debt costs.

$85 CASHCAT Play Turns Into $2 Million Surprise on Robinhood Chain

$85 CASHCAT Play Turns Into $2 Million Surprise on Robinhood Chain

CASHCAT, a Robinhood Chain memecoin with a cat theme, pulled back Thursday morning after speculative buying earlier this week sent some early holders’ wallets into the millions. CASHCAT traded near $0.0896 on DEX Screener, down roughly 27% in the past 24 hours. The token had a market cap around $88.8 million with close to $5.8 million in liquidity on its main Uniswap V3 pool on Robinhood Chain. Liquidity refers to the tokens and cash available in the pool for trading—low liquidity can make it hard for holders to sell fast.

Nvidia stock drops after earnings beat — NVDA investors eye China sales, March GTC

Nvidia Wins China Nod, New AI Project Starts to Move

China is getting ready to allow a few leading AI firms to buy a restricted batch of Nvidia H200 chips, possibly giving the U.S. chip supplier a small but key route back into a market pressed by U.S. export restrictions and China’s drive to use more domestic suppliers. Nvidia’s H200 GPU is designed for heavy AI workloads. Chinese regulators told Alibaba, ByteDance, and DeepSeek they might get the green light to buy some H200 chips, Reuters said, citing The Information. Beijing could let in fewer than 200,000 chips, which is less than half of what these firms wanted earlier this year.

Liontown Drops Again With Lithium Prices Pressuring Kathleen Valley

Liontown Drops Again With Lithium Prices Pressuring Kathleen Valley

Liontown Ltd shares face renewed selling going into Thursday’s ASX trade, after falling 4.25% to A$1.465 at Wednesday’s close. The reversal adds to the slide in the lithium player. Google Finance listed the latest price as of 4:11 p.m. Sydney time on July 8, with the day’s range between A$1.44 and A$1.52. Volume was 70.63 million shares. The timing is important because the ASX had not started continuous trading at the dateline. The exchange says its pre-open runs from 7:00 a.m. to 9:59 a.m. in Sydney, letting brokers place orders but with no matching on ASX Trade. Regular trading goes from around 9:59:45 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Fortescue shares up as miner hits 200Mt shipped, market keeps an eye on margins

Fortescue (ASX:FMG) avoids mining sector drop with China iron ore cut-off ahead

Fortescue shares held steady, skirting a wider mining selloff, as traders watched for a decision out of China on iron-ore deadlines. Sydney, July 9, 2026, 06:04 AEST Shares of Fortescue Ltd moved up in the last ASX session. The iron-ore producer’s small gain came as the wider mining sector fell, with investors looking at its China links and new legal and energy-unit risks.

FTSE 100 drops as oil surge stokes rate fears

FTSE 100 drops as oil surge stokes rate fears

UK stocks fell Wednesday as oil’s rally stopped being an easy win for London. Brent prices lifted BP and Shell, but higher oil brought rate fears back. The FTSE 100 had energy names up, but most other shares fell. FTSE 100 lost ground Wednesday, showing the index hasn’t been a safe spot for investors. Still, it’s up 5.62% in 2024 and has gained 18.29% over the last 12 months, so there were profits on the table before the drop. The easy path for UK stocks in June now faces stiffer tests as earnings season arrives in July.

Tullow Oil (LON:TLW) rallies after Brent jump boosts debt hopes

Tullow Oil (LON:TLW) rallies after Brent jump boosts debt hopes

After London shut at 16:30 BST, Tullow Oil plc didn’t behave like most small-cap risk names. The stock moved like a leveraged Brent trade. Hargreaves Lansdown’s delayed quote had shares up 1.32 pence, or 10.58%, on volume of 16.96 million, giving a market cap near 209 million pounds. The FTSE All-Share showed a 1.63% drop on the same page. Oil drove the move, not any new headline from the company. Brent crude climbed 6.75% to $79.16 a barrel on July 8. Reuters said the rally kicked off after Iranian forces hit commercial ships near the Strait of Hormuz, the U.S. pulled a license linked to Iranian oil sales, and the U.S. then hit back at Iran.

Rolls-Royce (LON:RR.) drops after oil shock ahead of July results

Rolls-Royce (LON:RR.) drops after oil shock ahead of July results

Rolls-Royce shares dropped 3.34% to finish at 1,399.40p, almost matching the low of the day at 1,387.60p. The FTSE 100 was down 1.66%. Volume hit 15.62 million, or 48% of the 65-day average. No company news drove the stock down—this was the market handing back gains on a stock that had priced in good news. Weak tape, but not panic selling. Stocks sold off across the UK on Wednesday after U.S. President Donald Trump said a first deal to end the conflict with Iran was “over,” Reuters reported. Defence names pulled the FTSE 100 lower, but BP p.l.c. and Shell plc climbed as oil prices rallied. For Rolls-Royce, that put it in a tough spot: pricier oil squeezes airlines, but

Victoria PLC shares rise after refinancing tackles debt, dilution remains priced in

Victoria PLC shares rise after refinancing tackles debt, dilution remains priced in

Victoria PLC bucked the small-cap trend. The stock last dealt at 74.80p, up 28.97%, during the 0800-1630 BST main London session, according to Google Finance. Volume hit 2.05 million shares, well ahead of the 230,400 average. The AIM index slipped, so this was a one-off recapitalisation move and not about the market. The share move tracks if you treat the stock as a claim on a balance sheet getting redrawn. Victoria’s market cap stood at £86.28 million at 74.80p. The suggested cut to senior debt and preferred shares is over triple that equity, so the stock today is moving more on relief about near-term refinancing risk than any new sales figure.

CPP Group faces liquidity questions as rescue vote shifts focus for AIM stock

CPP Group faces liquidity questions as rescue vote shifts focus for AIM stock

CPP Group plc was last seen at 33 pence in delayed London trading Wednesday, gaining 24.5% for the session on volume of more than 134,000 shares, well above its 65-day average of about 13,000. No new RNS from the company in the last two sessions. This is a vote-risk move ahead of its July 14 general meeting, not a sign of a clean turnaround. CPP trades at 33p, putting the company’s market cap around £3.0 million. Shares are still down about 80% from a 52-week high of 163p and sit 32% above the recent 25p low. AJ Bell’s quote showed 31p to sell and 33p to buy, leaving a 2p spread, or roughly 6.3% of the midpoint before dealing costs.

Greenland miners seen in spotlight as NATO talks raw materials, Trump pushes Denmark

Greenland miners seen in spotlight as NATO talks raw materials, Trump pushes Denmark

NATO’s update on raw materials puts the focus back on Greenland for investors. The alliance is putting together a supply-chain group, but the options for direct public equity plays are still mostly Arctic mine developers, and most of them don’t produce yet. Secretary General Mark Rutte kicked off NATO’s defence-critical raw materials project at the Defence Industry Forum in Ankara on Tuesday. NATO said in a statement the project covers buying, storing, moving and managing materials, components and recycled products used in defence production. “For our defence to remain ready and strong, we need our industrial base and our supply chains to be resilient,” Rutte said.

Reckitt climbs ahead of July 29 buyback, investors look at cash return math

Reckitt Benckiser Group plc climbed on Tuesday, trading above the average repurchase price from the latest part of its £1 billion buyback. With shares up, the next move on capital returns is back on the table ahead of half-year results. Reckitt finished after hours with a 5,206p bid and a 5,208p offer, up 106p, or 2.08%, according to Hargreaves Lansdown. HL’s page logged the FTSE 100 up 0.13%. Reckitt closed last session at 5,088p, volume came in at 1,060,707 shares, giving a £32.98 billion market cap.

Babcock stock rises as buyback data, Artisan stake put Type 31 gap in focus

Babcock stock rises as buyback data, Artisan stake put Type 31 gap in focus

Babcock International Group PLC rose 2.96% to 1,079p in London on Tuesday, closing at its session high and beating a 0.13% rise in the FTSE 100 Index. The stock is 19.6% above its June 29 intraday low of 902.4p, but still 29.3% below its 52-week high of 1,527p. The trade was not built on a fresh order announcement. Babcock’s RNS feed for July 7 and July 6 showed a buyback notice and a holding notice, not a contract award or trading update. That puts the focus on ownership, buyback timing and the market’s read-through from last month’s Type 31 charge.

FTSE 100 rises but UK mid-caps struggle

FTSE 100 ekes out small gain, but closes near day’s low British blue chips closed a bit higher Tuesday, though the finish lagged the best levels of the session. The London Stock Exchange’s regular hours are 0800 to 1630 BST. FTSE 100 touched 10,747.01 and dropped to 10,651.17 before ending at 10,665.88, just 14.71 points up from its low. Blue chips looked steadier than domestic names. The FTSE 100 added 0.13%. The FTSE 250 dropped 0.5% and AIM slid 1.2%. So, the FTSE 100 finished 0.63 percentage points ahead of the 250 and 1.33 ahead of AIM for the day.

Vianet (LON:VNET) up as AGM details bring cash return into focus

Vianet Group plc shares edged higher Tuesday, outperforming a soft AIM market after an AGM update focused attention on recurring revenue. The stock closed at 68p, a gain of 2p or 3.03%, after the London market closed. LSE regular hours for July 7 ran 0800-1630 BST. Vianet outperformed the small-cap sector. The FTSE AIM All-Share dropped 1.14% according to Barclays, but Vianet was quoted at 66p to 70p heading into the close.

Insig AI (AIM: INSG) stock up after CEO puts in cash offer above market price

Insig AI PLC shares moved higher Tuesday after CEO Richard Bernstein made a new offer to buy shares at a premium to the current price. Still, the offer price was less than the 20p-a-share level the company mentioned in a funding update three months back. At 15:02 BST, trading in London was still going during the London Stock Exchange’s normal 0800-1630 BST session. Google Finance quoted Insig AI at 13.60p, up 15.74%, as of 14:14 BST. Volume stood at 388,510 shares versus an average 281,390.
