London's top share index rises slightly after its worst week since April
The FTSE 100 index went up 0.19% on Monday, boosted by climbing share prices for gold and silver mining companies. Oil prices fell slightly to around $102 a barrel because the G7 group of wealthy nations promised to increase global supplies. Despite the slight market recovery, traders now predict a 95% chance that the Bank of England will raise interest rates in November.
