European stocks were broadly lower on Tuesday as inflation and interest-rate worries persisted.
U.K. stocks were seeing modest gains on the back of a weaker pound and industry data showing lower growth in shop prices in September.

Food price inflation fell for the fifth month in a row to 9.9 percent from 11.5 percent and was down for the first time in more than two years on a monthly basis.
