|January 04, 2026
The UK's flagship share index celebrated the start of the new year by nudging above 10,000 points for the first time last week, sealing a yearlong rally which saw it rise more than 20% in 2025.
The FTSE 100, which is made up of the UK's largest listed companies by market capitalisation, hit 10,046 points in early trading on Friday, a rise of 23.3% from 2024's closing price.
Among the biggest risers were the defence and aerospace companies Rolls-Royce, Melrose Industries and Babcock International on continued uncertainty around the Ukraine-Russia war.
