IAG share price firms as oil slides nearly 5%; British Airways owner in focus ahead of Feb results
IAG shares rose 1% to 422.5 pence in early London trading, outperforming a weaker European market as Brent crude fell nearly 5% to $65.94 a barrel after U.S.-Iran tensions eased. The STOXX 600 dropped 0.4%, pressured by commodity declines and news of Kevin Warsh’s Fed nomination. Investors await IAG’s full-year results on Feb. 27.
