Safestay LON:SSTY was in second place, up 13% at the bell. Interim numbers this morning evidently impressed with the company painting a picture of a strengthening outlook, suggesting that the post-COIVD rebound here still has some way to run.

Smarttech247 [LON:S247] was in second to last place, down 21%. A year end trading update may have painted an upbeat picture about recent achievements as well as the outlook but seemingly the market wanted more. Volumes were elevated for a second day and losses on the week now stand around 30%.
Fusion Antibodies LON:FAB gets the notable mention, up 12%. Again results – this time for the full year – were published and despite a challenging year the company’s cash position has been bolstered, whilst management have also promised that there are no plans for a further equity raise.
