FTSE 100 now the worst performing index across Europe as US futures edge higher
The FTSE 100 has traded below 8,240 this morning and so it is firmly in the red now, even as the DAX and the CAC remain in positive territory. At the same time the US futures are a little firmer as well and so, as you can see the FTSE is the outlier today, in a negative way for a change. That is despite the oil price continue to push higher. Earlier the price of December Brent came to within a whisker of the $79 per barrel marker. The reason for the FTSE underperforming is actually quite broad-based with a number of leading names in the red so far today and right now only BP seems to be making any progress amongst the leading oil stock components. The FTSE 100 is currently trading at 8,244
