周三,STOXX 50指数在持平线附近徘徊,而STOXX 600指数上涨0.4%,试图在软开盘后以更坚实的基础开始第四季度。制药股领涨,诺和诺德(+3.7%)、诺华(+2.4%)、阿斯利康(+6.2%)、罗氏(+5.1%)和赛诺菲(+4.1%)因投资者对关税的缓解而上涨。此举是在辉瑞公司和特朗普政府达成协议后进行的,该协议允许患者通过一个新的联邦网站购买折扣处方药。尽管如此,对美国政府持续关闭的担忧限制了更广泛的情绪。银行表现不佳,其中联合信贷银行(-1%)、联合圣保罗银行(-0.6%)、法国巴黎银行(-0.3%)、西班牙对外银行(-1.%)和萨瓦德尔银行(-1.1%)的股价下跌,此前萨瓦德尔银行的一名墨西哥董事会成员接受了英国对外银行的收购要约。在数据方面,9月份欧元区通胀小幅上升至2.2%,符合预期,加强了欧洲央行对进一步降息的谨慎立场。
The STOXX 50 hovered near the flatline on Wednesday, while the STOXX 600 advanced 0.4%, attempting to start Q4 on firmer footing after a soft opening. Pharmaceuticals led gains, with Novo Nordisk (+3.7%), Novartis (+2.4%), AstraZeneca (+6.2%), Roche (+5.1%), and Sanofi (+4.1%) rallying on investor relief over tariffs. The move followed an agreement between Pfizer and the Trump administration allowing patients to purchase discounted prescription drugs through a new federal website. Still, broader sentiment was capped by concerns over the ongoing US government shutdown. Banks underperformed, with Unicredit (-1%), Intesa Sanpaolo (-0.6%), BNP Paribas (-0.3%), BBVA (-1%), and Sabadell (-1%) trading lower after a Mexican board member of Sabadell accepted BBVA’s takeover bid. On the data front, Eurozone inflation edged up to 2.2% in September, in line with expectations, reinforcing the ECB’s cautious stance on further rate cuts.
