Friday Email: 05 April 2019

Every Friday morning our lead analyst Mark Riding sends out his weekly run-down and upcoming events in the investor calendar, like this one:

The FTSE 100 has had a good week rising by 140 points to trade at 7420.

The past week has been quiet with few dividend declarations.

The week ahead continues to be quiet. The ex-dividend situation is very healthy as recently declared (mainly) final dividends from the reporting season come through.
