SEOUL, South Korea (AP) -- Global stocks were mixed on Tuesday with inflation data showing a weak recovery in Europe even as Chinese manufacturing was recovering from contraction.

European stocks opened lower. Britain's FTSE 100 was down 0.3 percent to 6,840.60 and France's CAC 40 dipped 0.1 percent to 4,510.77. Germany's DAX lost 0.2 percent to 9,927.49.

The European Union's statistics agency said that inflation in the combined economy of countries using the euro was a lower-than-expected 0.5 percent last month, down from 0.7 percent in April, suggesting demand is weak.

The decline in inflation puts more pressure on the European Central Bank to take additional measures to support the fragile economic recovery when it reviews monetary policy on Thursday.
