European stocks drop at open
LONDON, Jan 17, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – European stock markets slid at the open
Thursday after the UK government narrowly survived a no-confidence vote and
as US-China trade tensions resurfaced.
London’s benchmark FTSE 100 index dropped 0.4 percent to 6,832.74 points
while the pound was also down.
In the eurozone, Frankfurt’s DAX 30 index shed 0.7 percent to 10,852.50
points and the Paris CAC 40 lost 0.6 percent to 4,782.63.
