This week, the AIM All-Share Index experienced minimal excitement, ending with a modest increase of 0.95% at 756. This was a slightly better performance compared to the stagnant FTSE 100.

The absence of significant macroeconomic events contributed to this outcome. As expected, the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of England maintained their base rates at 5.5% and 5.25%, respectively.

However, global equities saw an uplift on Friday, driven by a surge in tech enthusiasm following strong earnings reports from Google’s parent company Alphabet and Amazon. This occurred despite Apple, a member of the ‘Magnificent 7’, not meeting expectations.
