Ibex hits 10,300 points despite Puigdemont rejecting elections

Catalonia once again had the eyes of investors on Thursday. The Ibex 35 closed with a lift of 1.92% to 10,347 points, in a volatile week which began calmly. However, once it was thought Carles Puigdemont was going to call elections, the index shot up 2.6% before being deflated by his speech.
