Britain's top share index closed 0.7 percent lower on Tuesday as commodities and banks led the retreat over concerns that China's move to tighten banks' reserve requirements may slow global economic recovery. The FTSE 100 index closed down 39.36 points at 5,498.71, dropping back after hitting a 16-month intraday peak at 5,600.48 on Monday.
