AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

European stock markets operate in a context of waiting for geopolitical developments and mixed signals from US markets, despite good PMI data.

Font size

European stock markets slowed down and some went down, despite the good signals coming from the PMI indices. The mixed Wall Street futures weigh more. On a day of waiting for the Chinese Prime Minister's visit to Washington, we are still looking at energy. The decline in oil has stopped and Brent is now rising slightly while the prospects of the conflict in Iran and the Strait of Hormuz continue to remain unclear. Gas prices also move around parity. Meanwhile, the euro weakens against the dollar and is trading at 1.14. Government bond yields are rising slightly and with them the spread between BTPs and Bunds.

Frankfurt lost 0.33%, London recorded +0.11%, Paris +0.05%. In Milan (+0.17%) only Amplifon, Banco Bpm and Avio recorded growth above 1%. Pirelli (+0.33%) is little moved by the investment plan in the USA and by the strengthening of Marco Tronchetti Provera in the capital.

In Amsterdam, however, Exor stands out (+1.9%) for the new 500 million buyback.

What to Watch

AI outlook — possibilities, not facts

  • Brent oil could maintain a slightly bullish trend if tensions in the Strait of Hormuz do not intensify

    Possible · Within days

  • The BTP-Bund spread could continue to widen if Italian government bond yields rise faster than German ones

    Possible · Within weeks

Open Questions

  • What will be the outcome of the Chinese Prime Minister's visit to Washington?
  • How will the situation in the Strait of Hormuz evolve?
  • Will government bonds continue to rise in the coming days?

The OECD revises Italian growth upwards for 2026 to 0.9%, but forecasts a contraction in 2027

The OECD presents its Intermediate Economic Outlook in Paris, revising Italian growth for 2026 upwards to 0.9% from the 0.5% forecast in June, while for 2027 it forecasts a contraction to 0.6%. Global estimates show a slowdown, with world GDP at 2.9% in 2026 and 3% in 2027, strongly influenced by the resolution of the conflict in the Middle East and the dynamics of the energy markets.
