European indices rally, DE30 closes in on all-time highs
European indices are rallying at the beginning of today's cash trading session on the Old Continent. This comes after a stellar Wall Street session yesterday that saw major US indices gain over 1%, with small-cap Russell 2000 jumping over 2%. Optimism on Wall Street yesterday was triggered by upbeat comments on US debt ceiling negotiations - US president Biden said that talks are progressing and he will have more news on the matter on Sunday, when he returns from G7 summit, while US House Speaker McCarthy said that default is off the table and reaching a deal this week is doable.
Major blue chips indices from Europe are trading over 0.5% higher on the day. German DAX deserves a special mention as the index outperforms regional peers with 1.5% gain. Taking a look at DAX futures (DE30) we can see that price broke above a recent trading range and reached a fresh 1-year high today. Moreover, the index is currently trading just 0.4% below all-time highs from November 2021.
