Jan 23 (Reuters) - Britain's CMC Markets CMCX.L said on Thursday net operating income came in above its expectations in the third quarter, as it partly benefited from a flurry of online trading, dubbed as the "Santa Claus" rally, in the final days of 2019.
The company, which hiked its full-year target after a strong first-half performance last year, said net operating income for the year is expected to be above analysts' consensus range.
