European equity futures are all lower following the tone from Asian trading

  • Germany's DAX futures -0.32%
  • UK's FTSE futures -0.22%
  • France's CAC 40 futures -0.42%

Those are some strong signals sent by the futures market. It could be a bad day for the cash equities market by the look of things.

Meanwhile, China's Shanghai Composite index closed the day higher by 0.2% at 3,444.67; and the CSI 300 index closes down 0.2% at 4,248.12.
