UK 100 called to open -568 points at 5890; The recent buoyancy in the world’s second-largest stock market in China was under threat Monday after oil plunged and U.S. index futures tumbled. A gauge of stocks in Shanghai and Shenzhen fell 2.6% in afternoon trading, while selling by foreigners was set to notch a record. An index of Chinese shares traded in Hong Kong dropped as much as 4.6%. The Nikkei closed 5% lower at 19,698 in Japan. Another shockwave is about to rip through a world economy already reeling from the coronavirus. Oil prices plunged after the dramatic breakdown of talks between OPEC and Russia on how to manage the world’s oil supply. Saudi Arabia responded with a price war and benchmark Brent crude tumbled by almost a third to $31 a barrel on Monday morning.
