Ariston was the top performer on the day, rising 0.3c (or 30%) to 1.3c after announcing a reduced loss in the year to September 2012.

RTG gained 0.2c to 2.2c as investors showed their approval of the $4.5 bin recapitalisation plans. A 5.88% gain in African Sun saw the Tourism Index gain 9.28% on the day.
