JD Sports Fashion was the standout gainer on the top-flight index.

Marks & Spencer was in the black, recovering from losses on Friday and Monday after Asda said it would undertake a "substantive" programme of investment that would "materially" dent profits.

The warning from Asda also led to heavy losses for Sainsbury’s and Tesco.

Banks were in the black, with Standard Chartered, Barclays and NatWest all higher.
