FTSE 100 Competition Winner 2021
In our December 2021 newsletter we asked our clients to predict the FTSE 100 at the close of play on Friday 31st December 2021. We can now reveal the FTSE 100 Competition Winner 2021.
It’s a time-honoured Christmas tradition at Innes Reid and we’d like to thank all of you who took time to take part.
With 2021 being our 21st year Anniversary we went all out and offered a prize above and beyond all expectations. The last two years have been unprecedented for everyone, so we decided it was about time a little pamper and luxury was needed.
One lucky winner to receive a luxurious spa stay for two at the Carden Park Hotel and Spa, dinner, bed and breakfast and complete access to the award-winning spa.
The FTSE 100 2021 closing figure was: 7,384.5
Winner 2021
We are delighted to announce the FTSE 100 Competition Winner 2021 was Tony Lodge with an incredibly accurate prediction of 7,384.2! What a guess!
We contacted Tony to congratulate him and his wife Jan. They we’re absolutely delighted. “We have never won anything before, this is really out of the blue”.
A fantastic start to the year and something for Tony and Jan to look forward to together. Thank you to all our clients that took part in our annual competition.
