European Market View

Countries like France, Spain and Italy have rejected new lockdowns despite a rise in the number of COVID-19 infections.

Today's most important event is Fed chair Powell's speech on the monetary policy framework review at the annual Jackson Hole conference at 15:10 CEST.

The positive sentiment in the US equity market continues, however there was a mixed picture in Asian equity markets this morning.
