London’s FTSE 100 was down 0.4% at 6,598.36 in afternoon trade on Monday.
Artificial knee and hip maker Smith & Nephew was knocked lower by a downgrade to ‘hold’ at Commerzbank.
Just Eat and online supermarket Ocado – both of which have benefitted from lockdowns and restrictions – were both weaker.
On the upside, Paddy Power owner Flutter and Ladbrokes owner Entain were both higher amid the prospect of easing restrictions.
British Airways owner IAG, catering group Compass, InterContinental Hotels and Premier Inn owner Whitbread also rallied.
IAG was also in focus after saying it had boosted total liquidity by £2.45bn, via a loan deal and deferred pension deficit payments to help it weather the pandemic.
