Provided by Dow Jones Feb 10, 2021 5:16 PM UTC Market News: FTSE 100 6,524.36 -7.20 -0.11% FTSE 250 20,996.44 -116.50 -0.55% FTSE AIM 1,211.51 -0.31 -0.03% Shares in London closed moderately in red territory as the momentum that had driven gains in recent days has now ebbed. For much of the day, investor sentiment was higher as it appeared likely that the U.S. government was nearing approval of its $1.9 trillion spending plan. "Roughly an hour ago, sentiment turned a little bearish as U.S. tech stocks rolled over and that impacted confidence on this side of the Atlantic," said David Madden, Market Analyst at CMC Markets UK.
