FTSE MIB Ticks Lower

2026-06-05 08:01 By Kyrie Dichosa 1 min. read

The FTSE MIB fell slightly around 50,000 on Friday, following a modest gain in the previous session, with tech-related stocks leading the index lower.

This comes as investor enthusiasm for artificial intelligence eased after a weaker-than-expected earnings report from Broadcom.

Leading the losses were STMicroelectronics, down more than 3%, and Prysmian, which declined 1%.

These were partially offset by gains in most heavyweight financials, including Mediobanca (+1.1%), Bper Banca (+0.5%), Unipol Gruppo (+0.9%), Banca Mediolanum (+0.9%), FinecoBank (+1%), and Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena (+1.2%).

Meanwhile, the benchmark index is set for a small weekly increase after a volatile week.

The swings were driven by shifting Middle East developments, including an escalation of hostilities in the region and stalled US-Iran negotiations.

FTSE MIB Edges Higher
The FTSE MIB edged 0.3% higher to above 50,100 on Thursday, paring some losses from the previous session, supported by easing oil prices as traders sought clearer confirmation of progress toward a possible agreement with Iran.
