However, contracts on the Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500 indexes pared earlier losses to trade just 0.1 per cent lower. In Europe, the Stoxx 600 index was down 0.5 per cent, slipping for a fifth day. Shares in Air France-KLM, Ryanair Holdings Plc and other airlines fell heavily as flights were either grounded or delayed. LSE Group Plc, which operates the London stock exchange, recouped some of its share-price losses triggered after it said technical issues were preventing news from being published.

As quarterly earnings continued to trickle in, Sartorius AG plunged 13 per cent after the German electronics maker lowered full-year guidance.
