london-stock-exchangeLONDON: British and German stock markets fell in opening trade on Monday, but Paris was hit by a technical glitch, as investors remained firmly fixed on the Greek-eurozone debt crisis.

London's benchmark FTSE 100 index of top shares dipped 0.87 percent at 5,665.24 points and Frankfurt's DAX 30 sank 1.20 percent to 7,087.59, while the French market opening was delayed.

In Milan, the main Italian index fell by more than 2.0 percent after Moody's issued a warning about Italy's credit rating.
