⬆European stock indices start the new year with gains
After the mixed Asian session, major European stock indices begin their first session in 2022 with gains. DE30 increases by more than 1%, while FRA40 and SPA35 are up 0.8%. Today's upward move may be supported by the lack of negative reports on the Omicron variant.
It is also worth mentioning about the so-called “January effect”. This is a hypothesis that there is a seasonal anomaly in the financial market where securities' prices increase in the month of January more than in any other month.
