EUROPEAN SCHOLARSHIPS EXPECTED TO INCREASE AT OPENING
PARIS (Reuters) – The main European stock markets are expected to rise Thursday at the opening in the wake of Wall Street despite uncertainties about inflation as the publication of the results of the accounts of companies in the third quarter accelerates.
According to the first indications available, the Parisian CAC 40 could gain 0.49% at the opening. Futures are reporting a gain of 0.37% for the Dax in Frankfurt, 0.48% for the FTSE in London and 0.43% for the EuroStoxx 50.
The Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting minutes showed on Wednesday that central bank officials signaled in September that they could start cutting back on purchases of securities in the markets in mid-November or mid-December and that several of them feared that the rise in inflation would persist longer than expected.
The inflationary risk is indeed far from having disappeared after the publication of a rise in consumer prices of 5.4% over one year last month in the United States and the historic increase in producer prices in China. .
“Supply chain disruptions as well as rising energy prices are expected to keep inflation expectations high for some time to come, a trend the markets seem to be underestimating,” says Michael. Hewson, CMC Markets Analysis.
The market will take notice of producer prices in the United States at 12:30 pm GMT, at the same time as the weekly jobless claims.
A series of American results could also animate the session on Wall Street, in particular those of Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo and Morgan Stanley.
