Will the FTSE 100 close higher on Wednesday 27th December than it did on Friday 22nd December?
The market is closed on the 25th (Christmas Day) and the 26th (Boxing Day) so this market represents one trading day.
The market closes at 16:30 UK time when trading stops on the FTSE.
The official source of truth is the official FTSE 100 page but this is delayed by around 15 minutes so many traders use Google to track up to the minute prices, either by Googling "FTSE 100" or at this page. Note this is not guaranteed to be perfectly up to date - the numbers occasionally stall entirely and quite often shift very slightly after the market has closed. These movements aren't usually significant but can make the difference between an up day and a down day if the margin is close enough!

Resolves YES
I've added daily markets for the two final trading days of 2023, but I won't be adding daily FTSE 100 markets from January onwards since Manifold have made it clear that they don't think these daily markets are adding value to the site.
Instead, I'll add a market for the FTSE 100's performance for 2024 as a whole:
@SimonGrayson Is it cool for me to takeover the FTSE 100 Daily? I can handle it in a way I have proposed for these types of markets moving forward and have been OK'd for me to test out in January.
