TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS
European markets struggled nearly all week as the U.S. trade policies caused fears of a global trade war. Markets did put in a strong finish on Friday; but for the most part it wasn’t enough to erase losses from early in the week, and European markets finished with broad based weekly losses. The pan-European Stoxx Europe 600 fell 1.1% on a weekly basis, but Germany’s DAX led losses as it fell 3.3% for the week. Germany has the most to lose if protectionist trade policies take on a greater prominence globally. In France, the CAC 40 was 2.1% lower for the week after suffering a string of five losing sessions. London’s FTSE bucked the losing trend as it gained 0.7% for the week after flipping from negative territory with its Friday results.
