    Part of the Furniture 100 Posts Combo Breaker
    I think there will be a Spring bounce then it will tank down towards 5000 as the UK housing market tanks over the Summer and Autumn.

    Personally I don't care where the Index finishes the year....or even where it is at any time. I'm more interested in where individual components of the index are.

    25-35 % of the 100 Index will have good performances over this year, while a good many of the rest will be neutral and a few tank badly.

    The Index as a whole will do well to finish above 6,000

    between 5800 - 6300 (end of 2008). However, before that I see lots of pain: all the way down to 4500 :)

    Who cares. Go global :D;)
  • 6207.4 after Santa rally.

    Expect 5200-5400 sometime in Summer (when I'll start buying).
  • 6000-6200

    I run a FTSE predictions game in my office, we predict for midday and close and we're all getting damn close everyday. There's mention of baked good prizes being introduced!

    3500, give or take a few 100.
    One key moment on the way, the failure of a major US financial institution.
