Thursday sees Ebookers show other industry shares the way
There were mixed fortunes for travel industry shares yesterday as London’s equity markets moved slowly backwards.
The FTSE 100 dropped 0.6 per cent of its value, losing 25.9 points to close at 4028.8, while the broader-based FTSE 250 index slid just 0.9 points to 5140.9. Dealers were fairly busy with 2.8 billion shares traded before the 6pm count.
The best performer by a country mile was ebookers, which gained 16p to close at 488.5p, just a whisker away from its 12-month high of 500p. Its online rival lastminute.com fared less well, losing three quarters of a penny to close at 185.75p.
