European Stocks Drop

Spread betting and contracts for differences on European stocks
Spread bets and CFDs on the European stock market should consider that tech stocks are leading the downward movement. One of the main culprits is today's manufacturing data, which showed a drop in December. Bloomberg reports on how European stocks are doing on the first day of 2008 trading:

The Dow Jones Stoxx 600 Index lost 0.8 percent to 361.63 at 3:30 p.m. in London. The Stoxx 50 sank 1 percent, while the Euro Stoxx 50, a measure for the euro region, slid 1.1 percent.
