In other news, on Monday markets are also reacting to the weekend’s G20 summit in Hamburg. During the meeting several global issues were discussed, such as trade, climate change and defence. US President Donald Trump met with Russian Vladimir Putin for the first time and the two discussed the possibility of cooperation on cybersecurity. Meanwhile, Donald Trump Jr is the subject of reports that he met with a Kremlin-linked lawyer in last year’s presidential election campaign.

Economy minister Luis de Guindos defended the reduction of a fiscal agreement between the government and Ciudadanos, saying it will not alter the deficit of 2.2%.

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

“The Ibex closed in a no-man’s land between the support of 10,377 and the resistance of 10,600 points. It’s true that if we look at our European neighbours they are moving away from the danger zone. However, it’s still too soon to be making any assumptions. If we look at the Ibex 35 and to the significant ‘overselling’ it makes sense that we would see a rebound in the upcoming sessions,” said Bolsamanía technical analyst José María Rodríguez.

“Looking towards the futures of the DAX and the Euro Stoxx 50 the possibility exists that the rebound will be prolonged even more, but we will not be able to say that the corrective phase has hit its end.”
