During today's session we could see a continuation of the sentiment from the end of last week. While the macroeconomic calendar for today was rather sparse, we owe the positive sentiment to reports from Asia, where there was a partial lifting of restrictions (in Shanghai). The main stock indices from the Old Continent ended the session higher. However, the volatility was somewhat lower due to the absence of investors from the US. Trading in the United States will resume after the long weekend only tomorrow. Looking at individual European stock indices, the German DAX did well, gaining just under 0.8%. Growth in France (CAC40) exceeded 0.7%, and over 0.8% strengthened the Dutch AEX.
