Ferrexpo Shares Surge as Trump’s Victory Fuels Speculation on Ukraine Peace Prospects

Ferrexpo shares surged on hopes that Trump’s presidency could lead to peace in Ukraine.

Ferrexpo PLC (LSE), a Ukraine-based iron ore miner, experienced a sharp rise in its stock price, soaring by 22% to 76p following Donald Trump’s unexpected win in the U.S. presidential race.
