Stock markets stabilise after China trade warning | BBC

Stock markets around the world have stabilised, after fears of a slowing global economy sparked a big sell-off on Wednesday.

The main US share indexes closed 3% lower overnight, but the benchmark Dow Jones closed higher on Thursday.

This was despite a warning from China that it would take new countermeasures against US trade tariffs.

However, the picture was more mixed in Europe, with London’s FTSE 100 closing more than 1% down.
