Sentiment appeared to improve after Ukrainian president Volody- myr Zelensky said he was no longer pressing for NATO membership, which was one of the reasons given by Russia for its invasion. In an interview with ABC News, Zelensky said: "I have cooled down regarding this question a long time ago after we understood that ... NATO is not prepared to accept Ukraine." In equity markets, Anglo-Rus- sian precious metals miner Polym- etal was the top performer on the FTSE 100 after saying there had been no disruption to its opera- tions in Russia and Kazakhstan de- spite sanctions imposed on Russia after its invasion of Ukraine. Russian steelmaker Evraz also shot higher after saying it had not been affected by international sanctions imposed on Russia. Electrocomponents rallied after it said in an update that revenue and adjusted operating profit mar- gin were tracking ahead of expec- tations following a strong perfor- mance over the last nine weeks. Asia-focused insurer Prudential was among the gainers as it report- ed a rise in annual operating profit driven by new business amid the Covid pandemic. Legal & General was also up after it posted a jump in 2021 profit and lifted its dividend as it benefited from a post-pandemic economic recovery and an easing of restric- tions. Recently-battered travel-related shares were also in the black, with InterContinental Hotels, BA own- er IAG, budget airlines Wizz and easyJet, travel firm Tui and cruise operator Carnival all higher. On the downside, miners slumped, with Rio Tinto, Glencore, Antofagasta and Anglo American all down. Centamin, Hochschild and Fresnillo were also lower as gold prices retreated. 3.8% HLF 2029 Market Movers FTSE 100 (UKX)7,078.291.64% FTSE 250 (MCX)19,823.373.15% techMARK (TASX)4,109.931.56% FTSE 100 - Risers Polymetal International (POLY)132.05p43.50% Evraz (EVR)98.24p26.01% Electrocomponents (ECM)953.00p9.79% Melrose Industries (MRO)118.55p8.41% JD Sports Fashion (JD.)142.15p7.89% International Consolidated Airlines Group SA (CDI) (IAG)129.90p7.11% M&G (MNG)218.80p6.68% Mondi (MNDI)1,404.50p6.56% Intermediate Capital Group (ICP)1,514.00p6.21% Smith (DS) (SMDS)313.90p6.15% FTSE 100 - Fallers Fresnillo (FRES)767.40p-5.07% BAE Systems (BA.)721.20p-4.40% BP (BP.)368.30p-3.08% Antofagasta (ANTO)1,473.00p-2.96% Glencore (GLEN)463.20p-2.73% Rio Tinto (RIO)5,732.00p-2.63% Shell (SHEL)2,002.25p-1.83% Anglo American (AAL)3,789.00p-1.14% Royal Mail (RMG)345.60p-0.89% Avast (AVST)636.20p-0.09% FTSE 250 - Risers Petropavlovsk (POG)3.75p25.00% Wizz Air Holdings (WIZZ)2,837.00p12.71% Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings (AML)850.80p12.21% Trainline (TRN)177.60p11.70% Trustpilot Group (TRST)143.20p11.35% Quilter (QLT)130.60p11.05% Network International Holdings (NETW)188.35p9.63% Cineworld Group (CINE)32.75p9.39% Watches of Switzerland Group (WOSG)1,062.00p9.26% Baltic Classifieds Group (BCG)108.50p8.72% FTSE 250 - Fallers Centamin (DI) (CEY)102.50p-6.61% Hochschild Mining (HOC)139.10p-5.05% Endeavour Mining (EDV)1,985.00p-5.02% Energean (ENOG)1,036.00p-4.95% Capricorn Energy (CNE)194.20p-3.00% Babcock International Group (BAB)321.60p-2.52% PureTech Health (PRTC)179.40p-1.97% 888 Holdings (888)189.50p- 1.81% BlackRock World Mining Trust (BRWM)755.00p-1.69% Chemring Group (CHG)315.50p-1.41%
