Correction! Share prices don’t go anyone’s way they only go up or down according to demand.

@Luderitz- There's a trade in the markets at the moment being called a "rotation" where the belief that monetary easing by central banks this month will create economic growth is directing traders to sell high quality, proxy-bond stocks like LSE and "rotate" into cheaper "value" stocks that may do better if growth improves. LSE has fallen simultaneously with Unilever, Diageo, Paypal, Microsoft, Facebook and virtually every stock that you will see in the portfolios of Lindsell Train and Fundsmith has had a massive fall over the last 2-3 trading days. Those 2 funds hold high-quality proxy-bond stocks and they have suddenly gone out of favour. So the indices are slightly up, but they are being led up by the rally in banking stocks and similar stocks that were considered rubbish until last week. See Jim Cramer talking about rotation at this link today: https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/09/cramer-tells-the-stocks-investors-are-rotating-to-on-trade-fed-hopes.html And these articles: https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/10/a-sudden-transformation-in-the-stock-market-unnerved-investors.html https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/10/investors-dump-winners-and-buy-economically-sensitive-stocks.html
