The local share market has finished modestly higher as a four-day ceasefire went into effect between Israel and Hamas, but the gains were not quite enough for the bourse to close in the green for the week.
The benchmark S&P/ASX200 on Friday closed up 11.6 points, or 0.17 per cent, to 7,040.8, while the broader All Ordinaries gained 9.9 points, or 0.17 per cent, to 7,244.1.
