Shares in the London Stock Exchange rose sharply yesterday following the release of quarterly figures on Tuesday night that prompted analysts to raise their forecasts for the company – and apparently put paid to Macquarie Bank’s hostile bid for the company at a much lower price.
In unusually heavy trading, LSE shares ended the day up 43p at 658p, with more than 8.5m shares changing hands.
