周三下午,乌克兰和俄罗斯之间的战争进一步升级,引发全球风险情绪回落,欧洲股市下跌。欧元区斯托克50指数下跌0.5%,至4730点,泛欧斯托克600指数小幅跌破500点。市场开始抛售股票,此前有报道称乌克兰在战争中首次向俄罗斯领土发射了英国制造的风暴阴影导弹。此前,美国制造的ATACMS导弹在同一天早上发射,俄罗斯扩大了使用原子武器的可能性。银行和汽车制造商在企业方面领跌,桑坦德银行、法国巴黎银行和西班牙对外银行下跌超过1.5%,而梅赛德斯-奔驰、Stellantis和大众汽车下跌超过1%。反过来,在收盘铃响后Nvidia公布第三季度收益之前,ASML下跌了1.5%,其指导被视为全球人工智能技术需求的领先指标。
European stocks swung lower in afternoon trading on Wednesday after further escalation in the war between Ukraine and Russia triggered a pullback in global risk sentiment. The Eurozone’s Stoxx 50 was 0.5% down at 4,730 and the pan-Euroepan Stoxx 600 edged below the flatline to cross the 500 territory. The market started to sell equities after reports that Ukraine fired UK-built Storm Shadow missiles into Russian territory for the first time in the war. This followed the firing of US-manufactured ATACMS missiles on the same morning that Russia expanded the scenario that warranted the use of Atomic Weapons. Banks and auto manufacturers led the losses on the corporate front, with Santander, BNP Paribas, and BBVA sinking over 1.5%, while Mercedes-Benz, Stellantis, and Volkswagen lost more than 1%. In turn, ASML dropped 1.5% ahead of the release of Nvidia’s third-quarter earnings after the closing bell, whose guidance is seen as a leading indicator of global demand for AI technology.
