PARIS/LONDON/ZURICH (dpa-AFX) – On Tuesday, Europe’s stock exchanges ultimately continued the stabilization of the previous day. This time, investors were spared a similarly wild ride as at the beginning of the week, when US President Donald Trump raised hopes of a de-escalation in the Iran war and thus ensured a rapid turnaround.
After a friendly start and temporary losses, the Eurozone leading index EuroStoxx 50 managed to reach the finish line with an increase of 0.13 percent to 5,581.29 points. Thanks to the price gains of defensive heavyweights such as Nestle and Novartis, the Swiss SMI closed 1.02 percent higher at 12,515.94 points. The British FTSE 100 rose by 0.72 percent to 9,965.16 points. He benefited from the strength of several heavyweights in the oil and mining sectors./gl/jha/
