Britain's FTSE 100 is seen rising 6 points at the open to 7,208, Germany's DAX increasing 14 points to 11,435 and France's CAC falling 2 points to 5,203, according to IG index data.

The drop marked what is known as a yield curve inversion, where the rate on short-dated paper climbs above that of long-term bonds.

This comes after parliamentarians took control of the Brexit process from May's government.
