Friday Email: 11 January 2025

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 and is up 79 points (0.97%) The S&P 500 is up 0.25% and the Stoxx 600 is up 1.27%.

The past week has been very quiet from a reporting perspective and will remain quiet for the rest of the month. There will be plenty of end of year trading statements over the coming weeks however.

Going ex dividend this coming Thursday with yields in excess of 4% from the single dividend we have RWS Holdings (5.6%), Catalyst Media Group (5.3%), Premier Miton (5.1%), B&M European Value Retails (4.7% Special) and Character Group for 4.1%.
