The British Stock Exchange FTSE index is steadily rising.

The FTSE index is a reflection of the share price of the 100 largest companies in the UK; it shows the situation in the country's economy.
Although in our case, the increase in value is most likely due to the fact that investors are transferring savings from the falling pound into shares of the most attractive companies.

Despite the fact that the pound has recently lost noticeable weight, on December 30 the FTSE index surpassed its all-time high.

The growth per day was 0.3%, which is quite a lot for such a short period of time.

Now the FTSE - 100 has reached 7142.83, the value of the index has been growing steadily over the past month, in December the increase was 412.11 points. In 2016, the FTSE rose in price by more than 14%, with the main growth occurring in the second half of the year; the main growth in the index was driven by shares of companies such as GlaxoSmithKleine, Rolls-Royce Holding, BAE Systems.
