European equity close: Sluggish start to the week

  • Closing changes for the main European bourses
  • German DAX -0.7%
  • French CAC flat
  • UK FTSE 100 -0.7%
  • Spain IBEX +0.1%
  • Italy MIB -0.3%

UK stocks outperformed the continent last week by a wide margin but they are having trouble getting above the February high. I would have thought we would see some weakness in French stocks but the flat reading argues there was some fear of a very strong performance from Le Pen.

Here's the FTSE 100:
