FTSE 250 movers: Vesuvius snaps higher, Aston Martin dips
Shares of engineered ceramics specialist Vesuvius topped the the FTSE 250 leaderboard on Friday, following a notifiicaction that fund manager GLG Partners had upped its stake in the outfit.
Software designer Kainos was higher alongside after analysts at Berenberg sounded a bullish note on the shares in the wake of US client Workday's decision to grant it "Phase 1 Prime Partner".
CMC Markets was also on the up, bouncing back a bit after a tumble during the previous session.
Aston Martin shares on the other hand were slipping having earlier reported wider first-half losses as supply chain constraints hit production.
