European indices launched today's trading higher, in response to an upbeat Wall Street session yesterday as well as after-hours gains on US indices, driven by solid earnings reports from Meta Platforms and Amazon.
Economic calendar for the European morning is empty. French industrial production data for December was the only noteworthy release scheduled, and it was already released at 7:45 am GMT, showing a 1.1% MoM increase (exp. 0.2% MoM). Things get much more interesting in the afternoon with release of NFP report for January at 1:30 pm GMT. Final University of Michigan data will also be released, but it is not expected to trigger any major market moves.
