Investors Rush Back to Global Equity Markets
Closures keep markets thin amid cautious optimism.
European stocks are set to open higher again Tuesday as investors continue to rush back in to global equity markets following a cooling of tensions between North Korea and the United States.
Britain's FTSE 100 is slated to add around 10 points, or 0.05%, at the start of trading, according to financial bookmaking group IG, with modestly firmer advances expected for markets in France and Germany. Switzerland's SMI, however, looks set for a 0.25% gain thanks to a quick decline in the franc against the U.S. dollar driven by investors moving cash from safe-haven assets into riskier markets.
