Sweeteners group Tate & Lyle was leading the way up after announcing that it expects to perform in line with expectations over the full year after a strong performance in the six months to 30 September.In the speciality food ingredients division, corn-based speciality sweetener and starch volumes grew in line with the market, the firm said. RBS has lowered its rating and target price on Man Group after the hedge fund manager's poorly received trading statement yesterday, sending the firm's share price tumbling. It now has a "hold" rating having previously had a "buy" stance and the target price falls to 205p from 282p. Compass was heading lower despite announcing that it put in "another good performance" in the fourth quarter of the financial year, with organic revenue growth expected to exceed 4%, though the catering giant has seen some pressure on volumes recently.Over the full year, Compass expects total revenue growth of 9%, or about 5% on an organic basis.
