Weak closure for European stock exchanges. In the end of the session, uncertainty returned to prevail and the price lists reversed after a mostly rising day. Milan ends at -0.68%, London -0.72%, Frankfurt -0.78%, holds Paris -0.13%. The tensions between the United States and China continue to worry. In addition to the currency front, that of commercial duties: US President Trump said he wanted an agreement on duties, but - he said - it must be a just agreement. Wall Street after the crash of yesterday is up, but has reduced the initial momentum: the Dow Jones index gains 0.28%, the Nasdaq gains 0.51%. The spread between German BTPs and Bunds closed at 205 basis points, with our ten-year yield at 1.51%. On the currency markets, the Euro is slightly down on the Dollar, at 1.1194 at the end of the session. Update at 17.50
