Britain's top share index closed 1.1 percent higher on Monday, helped by upbeat US manufacturing data, with banks and commodity stocks topping the list of gainers. The FTSE 100 closed up 58.89 points at 5,247.41, having dipped to 5,163.57 earlier in the session. The index ended 0.8 percent higher on Friday. Experts said the rise was also due to technical reasons.
