At the end of the European session, moods in the stock market worsened due to the negative news regarding coronavirus vaccination. Authorities in Germany, France and Italy today announced they are no longer using AstraZeneca vaccines. In response to these reports, the main stock indices on the Old Continent are trading at their daily lows. The German DAX (DE30) contract is losing more than 1% and is trading below 14,400 points, while the French CAC40 (FRA40) contract fell 0.75% and the Italian FTSE MIB (ITA40) is down 0.2%.

The World Health Organization, however, believes that there is no evidence which would suggest that cases of blood clots are related to the AstraZeneca vaccine, and the UK medicines agency said the vaccine is safe.

Looking at the technical situation at the DE30, sellers broke below the support at 14,450 pts, which may open the way towards bigger downward correction. As for the H1 interval, the nearest major support is at 14,260 pts and is marked with the lower limit of 1: 1 structure. The local formation of a double peak may herald further declines.
