  • DE30 tests yesterday's lows

  • Attention focuses on PPI inflation and unemployment benefits data

  • Fashion companies support the demand side in Europe

Thursday's trading session on European markets brings mixed investor sentiment. The DE30 index is currently testing the minima of yesterday's session and is waiting for the opening of the US session, which may bring more volatility to the markets of the Old Continent as well. Investors' attention today is focused primarily on secondary macro data readings. At 1:30 p.m. BST, we will primarily learn about PPI inflation data from the US and the number of applications for unemployment benefits. The revision of inflation data from Germany did not bring any changes from the last reading.
