European indices open higher as stocks look for a more optimistic end to the week

  • Eurostoxx +0.5%
  • Germany DAX +0.6%
  • France CAC 40 +0.5%
  • FTSE United Kingdom +0.7%
  • Spain IBEX +0.6%
  • Italy FTSE MIB +0.6%

The best sentiment, however, came from tech stocks, with S&P 500 futures up 0.8% and Nasdaq futures up 1.1% on the day. This stems from better results from Alphabet and Microsoft. Also helping to improve the mood somewhat is Wall Street’s late rebound, which helped pare some of yesterday’s losses.
