5 Best Wireless Telecom Stocks To Own Right Now

LONDON -- After a period of strong rises, the FTSE 100 (FTSEINDICES: ^FTSE  ) has retrenched somewhat today, dropping 1.8% to 6,718 points by 7:55 a.m. EDT. But to put that into perspective, it's only four days since the index closed above the 6,700 level for the first time in more than six years. The immediate trigger for today's losses seems to be an overnight 7% fall in Japan's Nikkei index after Asian markets were spooked by weaker Chinese data.

Even with the FTSE falling, there are individual shares that are beating it downward. Here are three from the indexes that are losing today.

Lloyds
After rising yesterday when Lloyds Banking Group reassured the markets that its capital position was strong, the shares have slipped 2.4% today after the bank announced the sale of 77 million shares in St. James's Place at a price of 580 pence per share, raising approximately 拢450 million. After the sale, Lloyds continues to hold 110 million shares, or about 21% of the company.
