European equities mostly a little higher at the open today

  • A tad too optimistic maybe?
  • Eurostoxx +0.2%
  • Germany DAX +0.7%
  • France CAC 40 flat
  • UK FTSE +0.2%
  • Spain IBEX +0.3%
  • Italy FTSE MIB +0.6%

In Germany, politics are also a consideration now after Scholz dismissed finance minister Lindner and that has led to the dissolution of the ruling coalition. Are we going to see another far-right push there as has been the case across the region in recent years? Besides that, Trump tariffs are something that might yet offer a reality check for European stocks again, as they did yesterday when we got to US trading.

Best in 2026
