European stock markets set to open higher

Western sanctions on Russia less severe than fear
-
Virtual NATO meeting in the early afternoon
European futures markets point to a higher opening of today's cash session in Europe. Global stock markets caught a bid yesterday in the evening after US President Joe Biden announced less severe sanctions on Russia than feared. Wall Street recovered from a drop and managed to finish yesterday trading higher. European index futures trade around 2% above yesterday's cash close. However, relief in the markets does not mean that relief has come in geopolitics. Russia continues its invasion in Ukraine with expectations of Kyiv falling under siege today. Ukraine-Russian conflict will remain the driver of the moves in the markets and related-events should be watched closely. NATO is set to hold a virtual meeting today in the Ukraine and any statements coming from this meeting may significantly impact market sentiment.
