Where did this figure come from? As of 08:15 BST the figure shown he
http://www.londonstockexchange.com/e...html?index=UKX

Gives the value as 6521.72 with a high of 6528.51 (data 07-Jul-2016 08:02:10) and the previous close as 6,463.59

Looking at historical data gives higher closing values for August 2015:

03 Aug 6688.60
04 Aug 6686.60
05 Aug 6752.40
06 Aug 6747.10
07 Aug 6718.50
10 Aug 6736.20

So not really the highest since August 2015......
