Euro falters after German election; stocks unmoved

LONDON (AP) — The stock market response to Chancellor Angela Merkel’s victory in Germany’s election was fairly muted Monday even as the euro currency faltered.
KEEPING SCORE: In Europe, Germany’s DAX was up 0.2 percent to 12,622 while France’s CAC 40 slipped 0.2 percent to 5,269. Britain’s FTSE 100 lost 0.2 percent to 7,294. U.S. stocks were poised for a flat opening with both Dow futures and the broader S&P 500 futures poised to open just a tad lower.
