IMI plc (LON:IMI) lags FTSE 100 as buyback impact dulls gains

IMI plc fell 8p to 2,916p on Thursday, losing 0.27% while the FTSE 100 added 1.67%. IMI lagged the index by nearly 2 points. Trading volume was about 18% higher than usual. Hargreaves Lansdown listed the stock as closed for the day with pricing delayed. IMI gave up just a little ground. The setup was bigger. Shares are still sitting 39.12% higher year-on-year and now just 4.21% under their June 19 peak at 3,044.04p. That doesn’t leave much space for a typical buyback and guidance play unless July earnings prove the valuation.

Weir Group stock gains after Lloyds Metals order for Indian slurry pipeline

Weir Group PLC shares were higher in London on Wednesday. The engineering company, based in Glasgow, said it secured a "significant" order from Lloyds Metals and Energy for GEHO positive-displacement pumps. The pumps are for an iron-ore slurry pipeline project in India. The shares last traded at 2,490 pence, up 54 pence or 2.2%, according to AJ Bell. Trading ranged from 2,438p to 2,502p during the session. Even with the move, the stock is still far from the 52-week high of 3,580p, so today’s rise is more of a bounce than a reset for the story.

UK Stock Market Today: FTSE 100 Jumps as BoE Hold, Rolls-Royce and Glencore Drive London Rally

The FTSE 100 charged ahead Thursday, finishing up 165.71 points, pushed higher by fresh results out of Rolls-Royce, United Utilities, and Glencore. Investors shrugged off another choppy day for interest rates and oil. The more domestically focused FTSE 250 gained 264.28 points, settling at 22,465.15. The timing stood out: Bank of England decision day, and markets were already wrestling with how the Middle East energy spike might hit UK assets. The Monetary Policy Committee stuck with Bank Rate at 3.75%—an 8-1 split—signaling caution as inflation climbed to 3.3%. Another jump, they said, might be in the cards if energy prices keep rising.
