FTSE 100 Seen Opening Little Changed After Mixed US Session
0745 GMT - The FTSE 100 is expected to open little changed following a mixed session on Wall Street overnight as investors digest a batch of U.S. corporate earnings. IG futures data show the London index of blue-chip stocks opening 1 point higher.
