FTSE 100 & 250 movers in focus:

----------

Rio Tinto, up 3.2% at 6,752.5p, 12-month range 4,024.50p-7,557.00p. Shares continue a bounceback after a 5% advance last week, the miner's first weekly share price rise since the Middle East conflict began at the end of February. Rio Tinto on Monday says it has left iron ore shipments guidance unchanged. It reports iron ore port operations have resumed after tropical cyclone Narelle passed over Western Australia's Pilbara region. Rio Tinto's Pilbara iron ore shipment guidance for 2026 remains unchanged at 323 million to 338 million tonnes.

----------

Close Brothers Group PLC, down 2.0% at 365.83 pence, 12-month range 246.80p-563.50p. Shares in the merchant bank are down ahead of what could be the culmination of the motor finance saga in the UK. The Financial Conduct Authority later on Monday publishes its final plans for an industry-wide scheme compensation scheme. Close Brothers has set aside a GBP300.0 million. The stock is up more than 30% over the past year, but down around a quarter in the last six months alone.

----------

easyJet PLC, down 1.7% at 345.72p, 12-month range 337.10p-590.60p. Shares in the travel sector continue to be hit by the ongoing Middle East conflict. The budget carrier has slumped by a quarter since the onset of hostilities. A longer conflict mean a more prolonged stretch of lofty oil prices, lifting the cost of jet fuel.

----------

Glencore, up 1.3% at 545.8p, 12-month range 205.00p-549.00p. The miner hits the 12-month share price high on Monday. Shares have nearly doubled over the past year.
