In contrast, in Europe mainly "blue-chip" indexes dominate. DAX, CAC40, Euro Stoxx 50 soar over 4%.
The Russell 2000 index (US2000) rose by around 6% today. A huge bull market gap pushed the price towards previous resistance around 1 339 pts. Sentiment on global stock markets remains optimistic and if bulls will manage to break above it, then next resistance at 1 373 pts, where the upward movement was stopped at the end of April, may come into play. In the event of shift in sentiment, the level of 1 180 pts points is an important support to look for. Source: xStation5Market warp: Rate Forecasts and Semiconductors in the Spotlight
