The FTSE 250 ended Friday up 3 points at 7,023, and the FTSE 250 added 25 points, 0.1%, to finish at 22,684.
Stock markets are on the up on the final day of the week, with a muted performance from the FTSE 100 outpaced by better returns on Wall Street and in continental Europe, IG Chief Market Analyst Chris Beauchamp wrote. With May all but over apart from next Monday, likely to be a dull day indeed, the month is ending on a positive note, as strong momentum continues to carry markets higher while investors learn to acclimatise to an environment of higher inflation.
