Won Europe Today

Yesterday,

  • European markets extended their losses, weighed down by weakness in financial and healthcare stocks. Brief optimism around a potential U.S.-EU trade deal faded after U.S. inflation data showed a sharper-than-expected rise in June, hitting a five-month high and dampening investor sentiment.
  • The Stoxx 600 declined for a third consecutive session and breached support at its 10- and 50-DMA. Next level of support is at its 21-DMA. We recommend a selective approach to adding names on a high-volume breakout or decisive retake of their key moving averages.
  • Among significant movers on the Stoxx 600, shares of Swedish telecom group Ericsson B (SL@G.SE; ERICB:SS) fell more than 7% after the company warned about tariff pressures impacting its margin growth. Meanwhile, shares of U.K.’s largest homebuilder Barratt Redrow (BTRW.GB; BTRW:LN) declined more than 9% after the company missed FY25 estimates for one of its KPIs.
  • Most sectors closed in negative territory, with Banks (-395bps) and Travel and Leisure (-284bps) leading the losses. Technology (+81bps) was the only sector that recorded gains.
  • Among major indices, France’s CAC 40 closed 0.5% lower, recording a third straight session of losses. The index broke below support at its 10-DMA. It is testing support at its converging 50- and 100-DMA. Germany’s DAX 30 declined for a fourth consecutive session, closing 0.4% lower. It breached its 10-DMA and has near-term support at its 21- and 50-DMA. The U.K.’s FTSE 100 was down 0.7%. However, the index remained near its all-time high, above all its key moving averages.
  • Spain recorded its fifth distribution day and was downgraded to a Downtrend from an Uptrend Under Pressure. Denmark marked its second distribution day and was shifted to an Uptrend Under Pressure from a Confirmed Uptrend.
  • Ireland recorded Day 1 of its Rally Attempt.
  • Thirteen of the 16 indices we track closed in the red. Eight are in a Confirmed Uptrend, three in a Rally Attempt, three in an Uptrend Under Pressure, and two in a Downtrend. The average distribution day count stands at 3.1.
  • All the 24 European Focus List names are trading above their 200-DMA, while 21 ideas are trading above their 50-DMA.
  • Actionable names in the European Focus List are Galderma (GALD.CH; GALD:SW), Swissquote ‘R’ (SQN.CH; SQN:SW), Alk-Abello B (ALK.DK; ALKB:DC), Wise A (WISE.GB; WISE:LN), Lottomatica Group (LOTG.IT; LTMC:IM), Nemetschek (NEMX.DE; NEM:GR), Bawag Group (BWGP.AT; BG:AV), and Medicover B (MEDI.SE; MCOVB:SS).
