Historical provider snapshot, not a current market update. The original record attributed a 10,688.47-point FTSE 100 reading and a 10,658.13-point comparison reference to a public provider for September 16. This review has not independently authenticated those dated levels against the administrator’s historical price-index records.

Arithmetic is not source authentication
(10,688.47 ÷ 10,658.13 − 1) × 100 is approximately +0.2847%, rounding to +0.28%. The earlier saved checkpoint used the same 10,658.13 reference, so its matching rounded result is not a separate independent confirmation. No performance has been calculated from today’s value.
Which FTSE series is being discussed?
FTSE Russell’s UK index reference distinguishes the FTSE 100 from total-return variants that reinvest dividend income. The archived ^FTSE provider symbol was presented as a cash price-index reading. Levels are expressed in index points, not pounds payable for the index itself. The old sentence calling the unit “GBP” has been corrected; a series’ base currency is a separate attribute.
The earlier generic sterling, gilt-yield and sector checklist did not establish the cause of this particular movement and has been removed. The administrator reference explains the series; it does not validate these retained historical price fields.
Correction — 12 October 2026: Cash-index levels in this report and its summaries are expressed in index points, not cash prices in GBP. A return series may have a base currency; that does not make the quoted index level an amount payable for the index. Only the unit labels have changed. Historical values, percentages, observation times and the original publication date are preserved. This correction does not independently verify the archived provider observations. Primary instrument/methodology reference (reviewed 12 October 2026; correction recorded 2026-10-12T12:06:06+00:00).
Archive clarification — 17 October 2026: A remaining body sentence incorrectly described cash-index levels as GBP despite the earlier unit correction. It now says index points. The title/summary identify the historical provider record, and unsupported certainty about a verified official close has been removed. The original URL, publication and modification date fields, image assignment and byline are unchanged. This is a correction of the historical report, not a new market update.
