European equities hold steadier at the open today

Forex Short News
  • Eurostoxx +0.1%
  • Germany DAX +0.2%
  • France CAC 40 flat
  • UK FTSE flat
  • Spain IBEX +0.4%
  • Italy FTSE MIB +0.4%

This comes after the more sluggish performance yesterday to kick start the new week/month. As things stand, market players are definitely still reserving some caution as the overall risk mood remains on the rocks. US futures are down with S&P 500 futures lower by 0.1% so that’s keeping any optimism in check so far on the day. Elsewhere, Bitcoin continues to keep around $86,790 and just marginally higher on the day. The fact that cryptocurrencies are bleeding further is at least also playing a part in the steadier risk mood today.
