0739 GMT - Barclays earnings were messy with investment banking beating estimates, while there were some small misses in other areas, Jefferies analyst Jonathan Pierce writes. "It was a messy quarter because of higher rates, the acquisition of Best Egg and the sale of American Airlines," Pierce says. Jefferies has a buy rating on the stock and a 590 pence target price. Shares are down 4.6% at 505.9 pence but up 6.3% over the year to date. (ian.walker@wsj.com)
