After a bruising run for European travel stocks, Deutsche Bank has softened its stance on Intercontinental Hotels Group PLC (LSE:IHG), upgrading the UK-listed operator of Holiday Inn and Crowne Plaza from 'sell' to 'hold'. The move comes despite a modest cut to the bank’s target price, trimmed from 8,000p to 7,750p, and follows a 30 per cent slide in IHG’s shares over the past two months.

1 week ago | proactiveinvestors.com.au | Ian Lyall

It has been a rollercoaster week for global stock markets, which first dived amid US tariff, trade war and recession concerns only to whipsaw back when President Trump placed a 90-day hold on levies. It’s so far left the FTSE 100 around 1% in the red. Small-caps, by contrast, fared much better, ending the week up 1.4%. That said, the ride to get this point was a fairly scary one, full of undulations. This comparative outperformance of the blue-chip index shouldn’t fool anyone.

SMALL CAP MOVERS: Tariff victims emerge after rollercoaster week for markets

1 week ago | thisismoney.co.uk | Ian Lyall

It has been a rollercoaster week for global stock markets, which first dived amid US tariffs, trade war and recession concerns only to whipsaw back when President Trump placed a 90-day hold on levies. It’s so far left the FTSE 100 around 2 per cent in the red. Small-caps, by contrast, fared much better, ending the week broadly unchanged. That said, the ride to get this point was a fairly scary one, full of undulations. This comparative outperformance of the blue-chip index shouldn’t fool anyone.
