Sector movers: Investors cheer Vodafone shake-up

Date: Tuesday 09 Sep 2008

LONDON (ShareCast) - Vodafone leads mobile telecommunications stocks higher after investors welcomed new boss Vittorio Colao’s shake-up of its senior management with a new head of Europe and the departure of Paul Donovan, the head of Vodafone's emerging markets division.

Mining companies are struggling after metals prices fell. Copper prices tumbled after rising from a seven-month low yesterday. Kazakhmys, ENRC and Xstrata are among the heavy fallers. Precious metal specialist Hochschild Mining falls after gold dipped below $800 an ounce.
