European markets have opened mostly lower this morning, tracking losses on Wall Street and Asian markets, as remarks by Dallas Fed President Richard Fisher sparked concerns over an early scaling back of existing Fed stimulus measures. Closer home, the BRC reported that same store retail sales in the UK rose 2.2% YoY in July, compared to a 1.4% increase in the previous month. Overall retail sales were up 3.9% from a year earlier.
