Compass Group Shares Up as FTSE 100 Moves Higher Before July Update

Compass Group PLC jumped in London Friday, topping the FTSE 100 as investors moved back into the food-service giant. Hargreaves Lansdown’s delayed quote showed Compass at $34.10 to sell and $34.12 to buy, up $1.43, or 4.38%. Davy’s last showed $34.15, up 4.53%, after trading between $32.39 and $34.19. The FTSE 100 gained around 1.5% to 10,458.15, so Compass led the index. UK stocks pushed higher as a drop in oil prices and hopes for Middle East peace lifted risk appetite.

Diageo Shares Lag FTSE 100 Rally as India Payment Row and August Strategy Update Take Focus

London, June 12, 2026, 15:04. Diageo plc shares lagged a stronger London market on Friday, suggesting investors remain cautious on the Guinness, Johnnie Walker and Smirnoff owner despite a broad risk-on move in UK equities. The FTSE 100, a benchmark index of the largest London-listed companies, rose as Reuters reported UK shares gaining on hopes of a Middle East peace deal, but Diageo was little changed by early afternoon. That matters because a rising market can lift defensive consumer names, yet Diageo’s muted move points to stock-specific concerns still weighing on sentiment.
