The S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) ended the week on a high – a six-week high that is. The index lifted 0.66% today to close at 7,328.1 points. That marks a 3.07% week-on-week improvement.

Friday's gain came on the back of positive inflation data out of the United States. The nation's consumer price index slipped 0.1% in December, bringing its annual inflation rate down to 6.5%. That's good news for anyone hoping interest rates will ease.

Back home, the S&P/ASX 200 Energy Index (ASX: XJO) led the way on Friday. It rose 1.5% after oil prices lifted more than 1% overnight.

S&P/ASX 200 Consumer Discretionary Index (ASX: XDJ) shares also had a good day. The sector gained 1.4%.

Though, it wasn't such a good session for S&P/ASX 200 Consumer Staples Index (ASX: XSJ) stocks, with the sector bringing up the rear, falling 0.4%.

So, with all that in mind, let's take a look at which ASX 200 shares posted the biggest gains on Friday.
