IG Group’s profit warning dragged Plus500 lower before its reassuring update

Stock Movers linked Plus500’s fall to investors being spooked by IG Group’s lower revenue retention in contracts for difference and spread betting.[1][2]

Paul Scott said Plus500 fell 10% in sympathy with other spread-betting and CFD companies after IG Group’s profit warning.[3]

Paul Scott reported that Plus500 rushed out an inline trading update saying everything was fine, suggesting IG Group’s problems were not sector-wide.[4]

Paul Scott later said Plus500 closed down 5% because of what he called a false read-across from IG’s profit warning.
