6th Mar 2012 15:29

Cape, the services firm focused on the commodities sector, soared into the top spot after reporting record revenues in its first year on the FTSE 250. Heading in the other direction was gold miner Centamin which said labour unrest has brought operations at its Sukari mine to a standstill. In a statement released this morning Centamin said: "...the illegal unrest and work stoppage commenced as a result of a breakdown in on-going discussions involving general salary increases and other benefits with some members of the Sukari workforce."Oil producer Exillon Energy also headed lower despite reporting a month-on-month increase in production at its assets in the oil-rich regions of Timan-Pechora in Russia and West Siberia.Money broker Tullett Prebon was another faller having posted a decline in annual profit and a modest increase in revenue as it weathers challenging market and competitive conditions.
