FTSE 100 slides as 3.7% US PCE inflation overshadows Nvidia revenue beat

Nvidia's guidance miss on gross margin amplified the risk-off tone in tech. Meanwhile, falling Brent on hopes of improved Hormuz shipping conditions and peace talks added disinflationary signals, but did not offset rate fears.
