FTSE 100 fell 0.4% to 10,627.80 points on Thursday, near a one-month low. Brent crude stayed above $100 a barrel as US-Iran attacks on shipping raised supply fears, while energy shares limited losses. HSBC fell over 1.8%, and Associated British Foods dropped 11.8% after Primark forecast lower fourth-quarter like-for-like sales.
