As for the national indices, the Italian FTSE MIB revived a bit after fixing steep losses in recent days.

The European banking index led losses, losing more than 0.7% because traders feared that political turmoil in Italy could ultimately impact the banking system of the region.

Meanwhile, Umicore in Belgium managed to ascend to the top of the index after ING raised the target price of equities of the group of global materials technologies as well as processing. These stocks edged up by 2.5%.

Meanwhile, the echoes of Italy’s political coup also provoked a steep dive on Wall Street. Stock indices in the United States were weakened by a sag in the banking sector. The Dow Jones industrial index headed south by nearly 400 points, while the S&P 500 along with Nasdaq dipped too.
