Glencore shares are volatile and falling as European markets open
European markets are looking choppy and mixed at the open on Tuesday.
Glencore shares rose by 4% at the open, then quickly slumped, after rising by an astonishing 21.05% on Monday - there's been enormous volatility in the stock since its 29% collapse a week ago.
The firm's future has been the subject of intense speculation, as it's particularly exposed to the impact of tumbling commodity prices.
