European markets are forecasted to open higher on Monday, extending last week’s positive momentum. IG data indicates the FTSE 100 could rise 14 points to 8,667, while Germany’s DAX may gain 83 points, France’s CAC 40 could climb 9 points, and Italy’s FTSE MIB might surge 171 points.
Traders will focus on preliminary PMI figures from the UK, Germany, France, and the eurozone to gauge economic activity. Meanwhile, Asian markets were mostly up, though concerns persist over US President Trump’s upcoming tariff deadline.
US stock futures also pointed to a higher open, continuing the recent bullish trend. Trump suggested possible flexibility in his tariff approach but provided no concrete exemptions, keeping markets alert.
