<p>European markets are under pressure amid fears the current unrest in Egypt could cause instability across the oil-rich Middle East.</p>
<p>The FTSE 100 Index fell 47.2 points to 5834.7, with travel-based stocks such as InterContinental Hotels, TUI Travel and British Airways owner International Consolidated Airlines Group among the leading fallers.</p>
<p>The price of Brent crude remained near 100 US dollars a barrel after spiking on Friday, while the US dollar strengthened as traders sought refuge in traditional safe haven currencies.</p>
<p>Heavyweight banks such as Barclays were shaken by the uncertainty, with the UK heavyweight down 8p at 290.2p, a drop of nearly 3%.</p>
<p>With Thomson holidays owner TUI Travel cancelling flights to the Egyptian city of Luxor, shares in the FTSE 100 Index company dropped 6.9p to 252.9p.</p>
<p>Newly-merged BA and Iberia firm IAG dropped 7.1p to 252.9p, while InterContinental Hotels slipped 32p to 1297p.</p>
<p>Greene King topped the FTSE 250 Index risers board after it became the latest pubs group to reveal resilient trading over the festive period.</p>
<p>The group, which saw shares rise 2% or 9.3p to 457.8p, forecast more profitable growth over the rest of the financial year and announced the £55.8 million acquisition of restaurant business Cloverleaf.</p>
