FTSE 100 eyes further gains
The index recovered from yesterday’s lows, suggesting further buying pressure for the FTSE 100.
But what has been notable over the past week has been the inability to move on above 7250. If that, and then 7300, can be breached, then we have the makings of a longer-term rally. As before, 7090 and 6919 are the support levels for now.
