FTSE 250 movers: Ceres Power surges on GS price target hike; RHI Magnesita slips

(Sharecast News) - FTSE 250 (MCX) 22,292.33 -0.48% Shares in Ceres Power Holdings topped the FTSE 250 risers, continuing their rally from last week, as Goldman Sachs hiked its price target to 670p from 530p.

RHI Magnesita fell as the refractory specialist held annual guidance despite slightly weaker demand for its products in the global steel market.

Luxury car maker Aston Martin was up after it held guidance and said first-quarter losses had narrowed, and that the Iran war had so far not impacted earnings.
