The UK’s benchmark [FTSE 100 index closed higher on Friday](https://www.share-talk.com/the-ftse-100-recorded-its-longest-run-of-gains-in-over-eight-years/), extending its longest-ever streak of gains.

The UK’s leading stock index closed 1.17% higher on Friday, while the FTSE 250, which tracks mid-sized companies, rose 0.52%. The gains came after China’s Ministry of Commerce announced it was “currently evaluating” a US proposal to begin negotiations.

According to Bloomberg, this marked the FTSE 100’s 15th consecutive day of gains—the longest unbroken run in its history. The index has climbed 2.15% over the past week alone.
