FTSE 100 Continues to Accumulate Record Highs
The FTSE 100 made a new record high each day over the past seven trading days as the UK exited its 2023 technical recession with the psychological 8,500 mark representing the next upside target. This will be the case while the April-to-May uptrend line at 8,404 underpins on a daily chart closing basis. This uptrend line is likely to be tested on Monday, though.
