European stocks sagged Tuesday, with worries about the crisis in Syria still weighing, but luxury goods shares showed strength after an upbeat sales report from LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, MarketWatch reports.

The Stoxx Europe 600 index was down less than 1 point at 381.36, after coming back from a loss of as much as 0.4%. The technology, financial, utility and telecom sectors were falling, while basic materials, healthcare and consumer goods were among the advancers.
