Retailer Kingfisher bottom of FTSEpublished at 12:09
Kingfisher, best-known in the UK for owning DIY outlets Screwfix and B&Q, is the worst-performing stock on the FTSE 100 as we get to midday.
Its shares are down more than 6% - its worst performance in 11 months - after reporting a 0.6% fall in sales at stores open for more than a year.
The fall largely came at its French DIY stores, but B&Q - which today appointed a new boss (see post at 11.29) - didn't fare much better with 0.5% growth in like-for-like sales.
The FTSE 100 index is up 27 points, or 0.3%, at 7,512.
