Prime Markets in the Press - Greene King (GNK)

31/01/2011

Shares in Greene King (GNK.L) gain 5.7 percent, the highest riser on the FTSE midcap index, after the pub and restaurant group said booming food sales buoyed its retail business and it made a small acquisition in the sector.

"Top of sector trading is complemented by an acquisition which, while relatively small, is evidence of Greene King's balance sheet strength," says Paul Hickman at Peel Hunt.

"Provided the end of day close is at or above the 100-day moving average, currently at 445p, we expect upward price action and a retest of mid-December highs of 491p in the next 2-4 weeks," says Richard Curr, head of dealing at Prime Markets.
