[LONDON] European stock markets diverged at the start of trade on Tuesday, as London played catch-up following a long weekend.
In initial deals, London's benchmark FTSE 100 index rose 0.61 per cent to 7,028.44 points compared with Friday's closing level. The market was shut Monday for a public holiday.
Elsewhere, Frankfurt's DAX 30 index dipped 0.38 per cent to 11,576.12 points and the CAC 40 in Paris shed 0.15 per cent to 5,074.42 compared with Monday's close.
