With today's gain of 0.36%, Piazza Affari has struck the ninth consecutive session in progress. And it closes the week with a positive balance: in the last five sessions the Milanese stock market has gained 4 and a half percent, more than double that of Paris, London and Frankfurt. The optimism of the operators started this morning from the data on the trade balance. In Europe, the balance was 18 billion in June, rising to 86 for the entire first half of the year. Europe produces more than it consumes and for this reason the euro appreciated, rising to 1.18 against the dollar. Flat Wall Street, with the indexes around par. And a new leap in gold, which rose to 1775 dollars an ounce.
