Investor spotlights already on tomorrow's British elections, a key event for the future of Brexit. Weak opening for Piazza Affari, the only European square down to -0.23%. London, Frankfurt + 0.19% are up 0.37% and the Paris stock exchange - a city still paralyzed by the strikes against the pension reform - earns 0.09%. There are rumors in the American press about the possible postponement of US duties on $ 150 billion of Chinese goods, which should come into force on Sunday, December 15th.
