Wizz Air flew lower after a cyber attack caused disruption at European airports including Heathrow over the weekend.

Tate & Lyle was knocked lower by a downgrade to ‘underweight’ from ‘equalweight’ at Morgan Stanley, which cut the price target to 500p from 590p.

Precious metals miners were in demand as gold and silver prices hit a record high. Shares in Hochschild Mining and Endeavour both surged in response.
