Director dealings: Glencore director ups stake

Coates, who joined Glencore back in 1994, purchased the shares on Monday at an average price of 127.46p each, for a total value of £101,968.

Glencore said last week that it would delay a decision over a potential $2.6bn dividend payout because of the current "exceptional" economic uncertainty.

It said delaying the decision would"“strengthen the group‘s overall financial position", adding that although none had occurred thus far, there exists the risk of "material production disruption due to Covid-19".

As of 1630 BST, Glencore shares were up 8.05% at 140.66p.
