The latest moves at ITV have also seen their stock upgraded to a 'hold' by investment banking firm Canaccord Adams. Market reacts to appointmentInvestors have reacted positively to the appointment as the period of uncertainty at the top of ITV has finally ended. Norman has significant experience at heading high-profile businesses. He has worked for companies such as Woolworths, DIY chain B&Q and supermarket group Asda. Norman also has been involved with the even more every-day business of utilities, serving on the boards of British Rail and the power company Energis.
