UK's FTSE 100 slips as losses in energy stocks and AstraZeneca weigh
Londons FTSE 100 edged lower as losses in energy majors and AstraZeneca weighed on the index amid thin holiday trading. Weak crude prices dragged Shell and BP, while NatWest slipped despite profit growth. Gains in Unilever, Rolls-Royce and Pearson offered some support, but overall sentiment remained subdued after mixed earnings.
