United Utilities (LON:UU) led the blue chips with a 4.5% advance, while fellow water company and oil and gas producer BG Group (LON:BG) with gains of just over 2%. Airline British Airways (LON:BAY) and gold miner Randgold Resources (LON:RRS) tacked on nearly 2%.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average, the broader S&P 500 index and the technology heavy NASDAQ composite were unchanged in early trade.

BP, Shell, Tullow Oil and Cairn Energy decline as crude slips below $78: Oil prices retreated today after equity markets switched to selling mode after a US GDP update showed a decline to a 2.4% growth rate in Q2 from 2.7% in Q1, which was slightly below the projected 2.5%. Crude oil futures have been in decline, pressured by mixed economic data and signs of declining demand in the US reflected in this week’s inventories reports. Wednesday’s data from Energy Information Administration revealed an increase of 7.3 million barrels in US crude inventories. The EIA report said that gasoline stockpiles added 100,000 and distillates, which include diesel and heating oil, rose by 900,000 barrels. Tuesday, report from the American Petroleum Institute (API) showed a gain of 3.8 million barrels in US crude stockpiles. Yesterday’s employment data from the Labor Department showed that continuing jobless claims increased by 81,000 to 4.56 million. Initial claims, however, fell by more than expected, shedding 11,000. Earlier this week, the Conference Board’s consumer confidence index declined to five month lows at 50.4, while the Richmond Fed manufacturing index declined to 16 from 23 in July. This followed Monday’s update on the Dallas fed index showed a drop to -21 in July from -4 in June. A 1% decline in US durable goods orders also disappointed investors, as did the downbeat Beige Book survey, in which the Fed noted the slowing manufacturing activity and weakness in the housing market. The University of Michigan’s consumer confidence index for July will also be released today. September Brent Crude declined to US$76.48/barrel, while US light, sweet crude for September delivery slid to US$77.47/barrel.

This news prompted the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision to relax its liquidity and capital requirements in its draft Basel III reform. Investors became yet more optimistic after Spain conducted a successful bond auction at a low yield than last month. In another bit of good news, yields on Spanish and Portuguese 10 year bonds declined to 4.16% and 5.39% respectively. Gold got a little support from today’s US GDP update, which showed a slowdown to a growth rate of 2.4% in Q2 from 2.7% in Q1, which a decline to 2.5% was expected. Gold climbed to US$1,171/oz today.

CALEDON RESOURCES

Изначально компания Caledon Resources plc была основана для целей разведки благородных металлов в Китае. Однако, в 2006 компания была преобразована из производителя золота в производителя угля вслед за приобретением Cook Colliery и сопутствующих горнодобывающих предприятий в Австралии у компании Xstrata Coal Pty Ltd. С тех самых пор, компания приобрела прилегающее месторождение Minyango, расположенное на стратегически важной территории бассейна Bowen, вокруг которого широко ведутся операции по добыче коксующегося и энергетического угля. В настоящее время компания сосредоточена на операциях по добыче коксующегося угля в Квинсленде. В настоящее время ресурсы коксующегося и энергетического угля (согласно JORC), которыми владеет компания, составляют в целом 366,5 миллионов тонн и 17 миллионов тонн соответственно.

Caledon Resources увеличивает свою оценку ресурса на угольном месторождении Minyango

Австралийская компания по разведке и добыче угля Caledon Resources (AIM: CDN, ASX: CCD) объявила о повышении оценки ресурса на угольном месторождении Minyango на 52 миллиона тонн. Общий размер предполагаемых, исчисленных и измеренных ресурсов на месторождении составляет 292,1 миллионов тонн.

По славам представителей компании, качество угля предполагает как наличие низко-зернистого коксующегося и энергетического угля, так и наличие 100 % -го полумягкого коксующегося угля или энергетического угля.
Акции в Caledon Resources испытали резкие колебания в последнее время из-за комбинации факторов, включающих в себя высокие цены спот на уголь в Австралии, завершение вторичного листинга компании на Австралийской фондовой бирже, а также слухи относительно того, что компания Polo Resources, владеющая 25 % в акционерном капитале Caledon Resources , готовит предложение о поглощении.
