Asian stocks had a mixed trading session on Thursday morning, with Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index 0.03% lower at the lunch break and Japan’s Nikkei 225 index 0.2% up. On Wednesday night, British members of parliament narrowly voted to reject a no-deal Brexit under any circumstances. They will decide on Thursday whether to ask Europe to extend the timeline for Brexit, an outcome that could prolong the uncertainty hanging over global markets.
Exxaro said earlier in March that excluding non-recurring transactions, core headline earnings per share for the year ended December would be between R20.73 and R22.15 a share, an increase of between 3% and 10%. The coal business had benefited from higher selling prices, it said.
