Start of a cautious but positive session for European stock exchanges. Milan up 0.17%, Frankfurt 0.07% and Paris 0.38%. London is the only negative exception at -0.10%. On the other hand, optimism has pushed Asian markets strongly: Tokyo and Shanghai are up 0.7%, Hong Kong is gaining over half a point. Investors are betting on the early start of the first phase of the agreement between the US and China. Wall Street also closed well: both the Dow Jones and the Nasdaq rose more than half a percentage point. There is also anticipation for the start of the OPEC summit (oil producers) in Vienna today and tomorrow. The price of Brent and US crude oil in recent days has been on a roller coaster.
