24 March 2021 Closing in no particular order for European stock exchanges: the volatility of these hours is linked to the trend of vaccination campaigns and European lockdowns, including the turnaround of Germany.

Milan closed up at + 0.39%, London at + 0.20%, Paris almost flat while Frankfurt was the worst, losing 0.35%.

In Piazza Affari today the heaviest share was Lonardo (-6%), after the listing of the American Drs, indirect subsidiary of the group, was postponed.

On the other hand, energy is positive, following the rise in oil (US crude oil over 60 dollars a barrel) caused by the partial blockade of the Suez Canal by a huge container ship.

Overseas Wall Street is also opposed: Dow Jones gains a point, the Nasdaq falls again to -0.43%.
