Adyen (ADYEN.NL) records the biggest daily fall in the company's history
Thursday's session on European markets brings a moderate improvement in investor sentiment as investors attempt to negate the several-day downward cycle on local stock exchanges. The European company currently attracting the most attention from investors is Adyen (ADYEN.NL), which is recording the biggest daily decline in the company's history in the face of the company's worse-than-expected results. The macro calendar today will focus primarily on the reading of the US unemployment benefits report, so market volatility may accelerate around 01:30 pm BST.
