European indices hold slightly higher at the open today
globalreutersFebruary 20, 20251 Mins read - Eurostoxx +0.3%
- Germany DAX +0.3%
- France CAC 40 +0.3%
- UK FTSE -0.2%
- Spain IBEX +0.5%
- Italy FTSE MIB +0.2%
This follows the setback from yesterday, which threatens the winning streak for European equities at the start of this year. Trump meddling around with the Russia-Ukraine conflict remains a cause of concern, especially after labelling Zelenskyy as a dictator yesterday. That will again continue to be something to watch in the day ahead, alongside ongoing tariff developments of course. US futures are lagging though, so that’s also something to consider with S&P 500 futures down 0.3% currently.
