London, Mar 29 (EFE) .- The London Stock Exchange recorded generalized losses this Monday, with a slight decrease of 0.07%, weighed down by groups in the mining sector coinciding with the relaxation of restrictions against the pandemic in England .

The FTSE-100, the main index in the British capital, fell 4.42 points to 6,736.17 integers.

England begins this Monday to relax its restrictions, giving the green light to outdoor social gatherings of up to six people and sports abroad.

This is a small step further in the calculated de-escalation actions detailed by the British Government in its quest to lift the country out of the pandemic, which began with the reopening of schools on March 8.

Within this context, the groups that benefited the most during the session were Renishaw, which recorded 4.50% gains, followed by the BT telecommunications group, which advanced 4.40%; the firm Reckitt Benckiser Group, which gained 2.76% and United Utilities Group, which rose 2.29%.

On the other hand, the Flutter Entertainment group, which recorded losses of 3.31%, the firm Persimmon, which fell 3.11%, the Smith group, with setbacks of 3.04% and Entain, which lost 2, lost ground, 86%. EFE
