• Eurostoxx -0.3%
  • Germany DAX -0.3%
  • France CAC 40 -0.5%
  • UK FTSE -0.2%
  • Spain IBEX -0.3%

This follows the mood in US futures, with S&P 500 futures seen down 10 points, or 0.3%, currently. The overall risk mood is a touch softer but for European stocks, it's just a minor dent after a rousing start to the year. The bit part drop barely eats into the 4% gains in the DAX in the opening three days this year.
