19 October 2020 European stock exchanges are starting well despite the still worrying data on the spread of Covid. To push the lists the aid plan for the United States perhaps really in the pipeline and the positive Chinese gross domestic product, even if under forecasts. Milan gains 0.94% in line with Frankfurt and Paris, while London rises by only 0.58%. On the Piazza Affari price list, Atlantia (+ 3.11%) is waiting for developments on the consortium that will take over 88% of the subsidiary Autostrade per l'Italia. On the government bond market, the yield on ten-year BTPs (0.69%) rose from historic lows and the gap with German Bunds widened to 129 basis points.
