Anglo American paired biggest losses in the index, by losing 4.3%. Furthermore, ARM Holdings, microprocessor IP licensing company, dropped 4%, pacing losses in the technology group, as the analyst of Morgan Stanley Francois Meunier downgraded his rating on the company from overweight to equal weight. Meanwhile, the best performing company Burberry, luxury-goods company, climbed 3.9%, as rising demand for higher-priced styles boosted sales in Burberry's own shops.
