European equity close: Friday’s gains trim the weekly decline

Closing changes:

• Stoxx 600 +0.2%
• German DAX +0.1%
• UK FTSE 100 +0.5%
• French CAC +0.6%
• Italy MIB +0.3%
• Spain IBEX +0.6%

Weekly:

• Stoxx 600 -0.8%
• German DAX -0.7%
• UK FTSE 100 +0.2%
• French CAC -0.8%
• Italy MIB -1.4%
• Spain IBEX -0.9%

I don’t think there is a big takeaway from this week’s trade but that will change next week after the ECB decision.
