A poor week. The market rallied strongly after Pfizer announced very good results for its COVID 19 vaccine.

The FTSE gained 406 points, or just over 6% over the week.

Hopefully better trading next week.

A tough week on the equity markets. The US election is still undecided, but the markets reacted very positively.

Equities rallied, the FTSE gained 333 points, or just under 6% over the week.

Well south of  my 2.5 % bench mark.
 
Hopefully better trading next week.
