European stocks rise as Unilever jumps 8.0% and lifts STOXX Europe 600 by 0.35%
AI Market Summary
European equities rose for a third day as strong earnings (notably Unilever guidance and resilient luxury demand) outweighed geopolitical tension and pre-Fed caution. The key cross-asset driver was a sharp pullback in Brent on tentative US-Iran diplomacy, dragging energy shares while stabilizing Eurozone yields. With ECB rhetoric still hawkish and major central-bank meetings imminent, risk appetite looks earnings-led but rate- and oil-sensitive.
