As such it\u2019s hard to have much faith in the UK survey until it sustains a shift higher,\u201d Mr Monks added.<\/p>\n<p>But while taking due caution on the PMI data, he said retail sales and consumer confidence figures, are \u201csupportive of the growth outlook\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The firm data was also supportive of sterling.<\/p>\n<p>The pound was quoted higher at 1.3567 dollars at the time of the London equities close on Thursday, compared to 1.3437 dollars on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>The pound was further boosted by comments by Monetary Policy Committee member Megan Greene who argued that looser monetary policy in the US could push up inflation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis would, in my view, give even greater cause for concern about a risk of UK inflation persistence over that of weaker demand, warranting a slower withdrawal of monetary policy restriction in the UK,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The US federal reserve meets next week but is expected to leave interest rates on hold after three consecutive quarter point cuts.<\/p>\n<p>Countering Ms Greene\u2019s fears, analysts at Wells Fargo expects two 25 basis points rate cuts at the March and June Fed meetings, but said \u201cthe risks to our forecast look increasingly skewed toward later and possibly less easing this year\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn fact, given our view on how growth will evolve this year, there is a sound argument that the longer they wait to cut, the higher the hurdle becomes to justify on economic grounds the need to ease further.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The euro stood at 1.1758 dollars, higher against 1.1707 dollars.<\/p>\n<p>Against the yen, the dollar was trading at 157.99 yen, lower from 158.18 yen.<\/p>\n<p>In European equities on Friday, the CAC 40 in Paris closed down 0.1%, while the DAX 40 in Frankfurt ended 0.2% higher.<\/p>\n<p>In New York, financial markets were mixed at the time of the London equity market close.<\/p>\n<p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 0.5%, the S&amp;P 500 was 0.2% higher, while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.6%.<\/p>\n<p>The yield on the US 10-year treasury was quoted at 4.25%, trimmed from 4.27% on Thursday. The yield on the US 30-year treasury was quoted at 4.84%, narrowed from 4.87%.<\/p>\n<p>On the FTSE 100, gold miners Fresnillo, up 2.1%, and Endeavour Mining, up 2.2%, were once again in vogue as the gold and silver prices closed to push higher.<\/p>\n<p>The yellow metal was quoted at 4,984.07 dollars an ounce on Friday, after hitting another record high and approaching 5,000 dollars an ounce, up from 4,874.8 dollars on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the price of silver rose 4.8% heading above 100 dollars an ounce late on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConcerns over US public finances, political pressure on the Fed, and lingering global risks keep gold well bid on dips. Despite short-term overbought signals, the metal is on track for a strong weekly gain, and price action suggests pullbacks are being treated as opportunities rather than trend breaks. This is a high-risk trading environment,\u201d said David Morrison, senior market analyst at Trade Nation.<\/p>\n<p>On silver, Mr Morrison said the metal continues to outperform in the \u201cmost extraordinary fashion\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis really looks like a market in the midst of a blow-off top, with talk of supply shortages and a massive short squeeze bringing in fresh buying momentum.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s an awful lot of (fear of missing out) out there, and that has the potential to push prices up even further. But of course, the longer this rally extends, the greater the risk of being caught out on a weak limb. Silver looks toppy up here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Oil majors BP and Shell were in demand, up 1.6%, and 0.5% respectively, as the oil price rose, after the Financial Times reported that the US threatened to curb the supply of cash for Iraq oil sales.<\/p>\n<p>Brent oil traded higher at 65.76 dollars a barrel on Friday, up from 64.26 dollars late on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Insurer Aviva fell 5.2%, while sector peer Admiral extended its losing run, shedding 5.8% on Friday taking its loss for the week to 13%.<\/p>\n<p>Admiral was downgraded by Goldman Sachs and RBC Capital Markets earlier this week.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, C&amp;C shares tumbled 9.3% as it reported weak trading in the period leading up to Christmas because of tepid consumer confidence amid UK budget nerves.<\/p>\n<p>Mecca Bingo owner Rank was knocked down 4.7% while William Hill owner Evoke slid 2.5% as Deutsche Bank moved both to \u201chold\u201d from \u201cbuy\u201d after taking account for tax changes to the betting industry in November\u2019s budget.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest risers on the FTSE 100 were Beazley, up 36.0 pence at 1,152.0p, Glencore, up 10.85p at 501.0p, Endeavour Mining, up 92.0p at 4,366.0p, BAE Systems, up 42.0p at 2,027.0p and Fresnillo, up 84.0p at 4,168.0p.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest fallers on the FTSE 100 were Burberry Group, down 79.0p at 1,195.5p, Admiral Group, down 162.0p at 2,650.0p, Aviva, down 33.8p at 619.4p, easyJet, down 14.80p at 481.9p and IAG, down 12.0p at 418.3p.<\/p>\n<p>Monday\u2019s global economic calendar has the Ifo business climate report in Germany and US durable goods orders data.
