Britain's shares fall


(MENAFN- Saudi Press Agency) Britain's top share index dropped to a five month low on Thursday, with some stocks trading without entitlement to their latest dividend payment.

The FTSE 100 fell 20.05 points, or 0.3 percent to 6,660.50, touching a low of 6,651.00, its lowest level since January 21.

It outperformed the mid-cap FTSE 250, however, which fell 0.5 percent after it was hit by a raft of disappointing corporate updates.
