NAPI DE30: Az európai indexek hétfői nyeresége csökken (Angol hír)

• Stocks in Europe trade lower

• DE30 drops below 15,900 and tests 61.8% retracement

• Deutsche Telekom agreed to sales T-Mobile Netherlands

Majority of the European stock market indices traded slightly lower during the first half of the European session on Tuesday. Indices from the Old Continent erase part of yesterday's gains. Utilities, media companies and chemical stocks are the worst performing sectors in Europe today while consumer products companies and retailers outperform.

German ZEW indices for September were released 10:00 am BST and turned out to be a disappointment with both current situation and expectations indices missing estimates. Current conditions index was expected to jump from 29.3 to 34.0 but instead increased to only 31.9. Expectations index was expected to show a big drop from 40.4 to 30.0. However, release showed an even bigger drop with the index dropping to 26.5 - the lowest reading since March 2020. Disappointing release pushed indices from Europe to new daily lows.

DE30 rallied yesterday and reached a daily high slightly below the 15,960 pts mark. However, moods deteriorated later on and the index pulled back from the area. Pullback is being continued today with DE30, as well as other major indices from Europe, trading lower. German index is attempting to break below the 61.8% retracement of last week's correction at press time (15,880 pts area). Note that this level has been already tested earlier today and bears were unable to deliver a more decisive break below. In case buyers defend the area, a recovery and move towards 15,920 pts mark, that served as in today's morning trade, may be on the cards. On the other hand, dipping below the aforementioned retracement would pave the way for a test of the 15,850 pts price zone marked with the 50- and 200-hour moving averages as well as 50% retracement.
