Updates from ABF, Fenner and Glencore

The FTSE 100 climbed 0.30% on Friday, reaching 5,794 points. The biggest climber, by some margin, was Evraz, up +14.8%. Glencore Int saw the steepest fall, down -3.64%.

Overnight in Asia the Japanese Nikkei lost -0.05% while the Hang Seng dropped -0.15%, blamed partly on an unexpectedly higher Chinese trade surplus.
