Does anyone have a (ideally substantiated) approach to use us of the fullstop/period in alt tags and/or title tags?

e.g. alt="My goldfish" title="On holiday in Spain", v.s
alt="My goldfish." title="On holiday in Spain."

Seem to recall mention of screen-readers requiring the punctuation in the same way that an in-text list of hrefs require a non-linked separating character.

All conditional considerations welcome...

I'm guessing screen readers need punctuation in order to read it correctly.

I've not actually seen/heard this, but judging by the fact that screen readers have a problem with the phrase 'Skip to content.' I'm keen to give as much punctuation (help...) as I can.

Cheers
