LONDON (SHARECAST) - BP surged early on after revealing that it wants to sell-up at TNK-BP, the joint venture it set up with a consortium of Russian investors, as speculation has run rampant in recent days of a breakdown in the relationship between the British oil firm and its partners. Jefferies this morning estimated that the 50% stake in the Russian joint venture is worth $30bn.
After initially rise, telecoms giant BT Group fell after saying that it has sold its application development services business in France to the Paris-listed IT services company, Osiatis.
BG Group was heading lower, with investors likely to still be perplexed over Chief Executive's decision to offloaded more than £4.7m-worth of shares without an explanation earlier this week.
