FTSE 100 Rises as Oil, Mining Stocks Gain
0805 GMT - The FTSE 100 rises 0.8%, or 59 points to 7317 as higher crude and metal prices boost oil and mining stocks. Rio Tinto, Anglo American, BHP, Glencore, BP and Shell advance as Brent crude increases 1.1% to $112.20 a barrel. Gold, silver and most base-metal prices are also in positive territory. "Oil prices have extended gains ahead of tomorrow's OPEC meeting due to supply disruption in two producer countries," Danske Bank analysts say in a note. "Libya, whose production has halved since mid-April to 600,000 barrels a day, announced it may suspend exports in the next three days amid protests that have forced oil fields and ports to shut down. Anti-government protests are also disrupting Ecuador's oil production." (philip.waller@wsj.com)

Market Talk:
SSE's Saltend Acquisition Shows Increased Importance of Thermal Generation
0752 GMT - SSE and Equinor are acquiring a portfolio of gas-fired generation plants including the 1.2-gigawatt Saltend CCGT station for GBP341 million. This portfolio was previously sold by Engie in 2017 for GBP205 million; therefore, the price of this new deal is 65% higher despite the assets being five years older, RBC's utilities analyst John Musk says. "We believe this is reflective of the improved commodity and spread outlook and the increased importance of flexibility in tighter U.K. generation markets," he adds. Despite SSE's commitment to renewables and networks, Musk says this transaction is supportive for the U.K. energy group because thermal power generation contributes to supply security and grid stability.
