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.
