LONDON (Reuters) – The euro slipped and world stocks were stuck on Monday with fears of a Greek debt default undimmed and U.S. and UK market holidays keeping many investors on the sidelines.
The shared currency was down 0.4 percent and European shares were flat in anemic trade, although German utilities sagged after Berlin's decision to shut all nuclear reactors by 2022 in the wake of Japan's Fukushima disaster.
German utilities RWE (RWEG.DE) and E.ON (EONGn.DE) were among the biggest fallers, down by around 2.4 and 1.7 percent respectively, while shares in renewable energy companies rose.
Greece's debt crisis continued to deter investors from searching out higher risk assets.
