Image source: Getty Images Those with a vested interest in the Coca-Cola HBC (LSE:CCH) share price have probably read that the drinks giant’s expanding its product range in America by introducing a version of its top-selling beverage sweetened with cane sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup. The Coca-Cola Company confirmed the move after pressure from President Trump. The group’s boss said it was part of its ongoing strategy to “reflect consumer interest in differentiated experiences“. With over 60 variations of Coke sold all over the world, the company has a long history of tweaking its best-seller. And not all of these are…
Buying investment trusts can be a fantastic way to improve portfolio diversification. In one fell swoop, they provide exposure to dozens (or even hundreds) of holdings across geographies and sectors. The good news is that there are lots of them in the FTSE 250. Here are three from the mid-cap index that I think are worth digging into. USA The first is Allianz Technology Trust (LSE: ATT), which “offers investors access to the fast moving world of technology, the single greatest contributor to global growth.” The top holdings are unlikely to shock anyone, comprising the likes of Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, and…
Image source: Getty Images Airtel Africa (LSE:AAF), the FTSE 100 mobile communications group, has published its results for the quarter ended 30 June (Q1 2026), the first of its current financial year. And it continues to grow. It now has 70% more customers than when it listed in March 2019. It’s currently the second-largest telecoms operator in Africa providing voice, data and mobile money services to residential and commercial customers in 14 countries. How’s it doing? As most of Airtel Africa’s revenue is earned in local currencies, its results can sometimes be difficult to interpret. That’s because its turnover is…

Image source: Getty Images The Rightmove (LSE:RMV) share price fell in early trading on Friday (25 July) after the UK’s leading online property portal reported its results for the first half of the year. While the company performed well in H1, beating estimates, investors responded cautiously due to soft guidance for the back half of the year. What happened in H1 Rightmove delivered revenue of £211.7m for the six months to 30 June, up 10% on last year. This growth was primarily driven by sustained demand for Rightmove’s premium products among estate agents and developers, as well as strong contributions…
Image source: NatWest Group plc The NatWest Group (LSE:NWG) share price was 1.7% higher after the first hour of trading today (25 July) following the release of the bank’s results for the six months ended 30 June 2025 (H1 25). Understandably, upgraded income and returns guidance helped the share price continue its recent stellar run. Since July 2024, it’s up 50%. Over the past five years it’s more than trebled. What do the results show? Compared to the same period in 2024, the bank’s total income was 11.9% higher, its net interest margin improved to 2.21% and its return on…
Businesses need help finding credible climate projects within global carbon markets that have been criticized for offering investments that often fail to reduce planet-warming pollution. A report by the Voluntary Carbon Market Initiative, a nonprofit that promotes the use of such markets, found that companies see the markets as a “critical element of meeting their climate and sustainability goals.” But “clear, aligned and stable rules” are needed to guide businesses about how to select projects that provide them with carbon credits, to avoid public scrutiny that could come with problematic projects that fail to lower emissions. The voluntary carbon market…
Image source: Getty Images Yesterday (24 July), ITV (LSE:ITV) shares rose 13% to post fresh 52-week highs. This in itself is enough to attract considerable attention to the FTSE 250 firm. Yet, based on current valuations and the outlook from here, I think it could be ready to embark on a broader rally in the coming months. Here’s why. Reason for the spike The main factor that caused the jump was the release of half-year results. On the face of it, some might be surprised, given that total revenue for H1 was 3% lower than the same period last year.…
Image source: Getty Images The stock market doesn’t like it when companies lower their earnings forecasts. But falling prices can be great opportunities to buy shares. Earlier this week, Judges Scientific (LSE:JDG) announced earnings for 2025 are likely to be below expectations. The stock fell 16% on the news, but that’s put the stock on my buy list for August. What’s the problem? It’s never good when companies cut their guidance and it’s especially bad for growth stocks. So it’s not a surprise to see Judges Scientific shares falling, but the problems are quite distinctive. 2024 wasn’t a good year…
