European equity close: Spain, Italy and France lead with strong gains

Europe recovered a good portion of the gap that opened the week, though the gains certainly weren’t evenly distributed.

Closing changes:

  • Stoxx 600 +0.3%
  • German DAX +0.4%
  • France CAC +0.7%
  • UK FTSE 100 -0.1%
  • Spain IBEX +1.5%
  • Italy’s FTSE MIB +1.2%

I would have hoped the FTSE 100 would have done better after Trump yesterday hinted that the UK was safe from tariffs.
