European stock markets wobble at open

LONDON, Sept 19, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – Europe’s major stock markets wobbled at
the start of trade Thursday after the Federal Reserve cut US interest rates
but investors were left unsure about its next move.

In initial deals, London’s benchmark FTSE 100 index slid 0.2 percent to
7,302.20 points, ahead of an interest rate decision from the Bank of England.

In the eurozone, Frankfurt’s DAX 30 index was almost flat at 12,392.78
points and the Paris CAC 40 added 0.2 percent to stand at 5,628.91 compared
with the closing level on Wednesday.
