European stocks end lower, pressure from record oil prices cited

LONDON (AP) - European shares closed broadly lower Monday as pressure from record crude oil prices spread beyond traditionally oil-sensitive airline and automotive stocks to depress general market sentiment. 

The German DAX 30 index finished down 0.9 percent to 4,523.8, France's CAC 40 index fell 1 percent to 4,157.6. London's FTSE 100 index closed down 0.7 percent at 5,043.5.
