From the BBC:

Shares in Marks & Spencer have jumped almost 12% after the retail giant issued a surprise profits upgrade thanks to better-than-expected sales.

The chain said while there had been an element of pent-up consumer demand in recent trading, there were signs that its latest turnaround plan was working.

Thanks for your input Malcolm.

Define rare?

Plenty of positive news and opportunity to react to it - shares been rising for over a year, and up over 50% in that time frame.
