FTSE 100 futures not exactly rebounding this morning

Yesterday all the major European stock markets closed lower. The worst performing index was by some margin the FTSE 100, but it had been under pressure all day, as noted here. So, the index closed 83.62 points lower, at 8,273.32. That was a fall of exactly 1% on the session compared to a loss of 0.35% for the DAX and just 0.22% for the CAC 40. After the European close, as US markets fell back further, the FTSE 100 futures fell back and at one stage were pricing the opening for this morning at below 8,240. That outlook is a little brighter right now following a rebound in the Nikkei from the lows and modest gains in the Nikkei and US futures. That said, the FTSE 100 future is not exactly making much headway and that latest government borrowing data is not great news. The FTSE 100 is currently priced to reopen not far removed from the close last night
