European stock markets started Monday on the sharp rise in Asian markets, driven by a slight relief for the Chinese real estate sector and in the absence of American investors.

European financial markets have been rising since the opening: around 11:05 GMT, Milan rose by 0.63%, Paris by 0.56%, Frankfurt by 0.50% and London by 0.47%.

The increase was even clearer in Asia: the Hong Kong Stock Exchange gained 2.51% driven by its real estate values, while the flagship index of Shanghai took 1.40%. Tokyo gained 0.70%.

Investors are particularly relieved of a postponement of repayment of a debt of the ultra-indebted real estate giant Country Garden, scheduled for the weekend.

John Plassard, investment specialist at Mirabaud, also noted “new stimulus measures in the key real estate sector” taken by the Chinese authorities.

Wall Street will remain closed on Monday due to a holiday. It ended mixed on Friday, despite a monthly employment report that went in the direction of investors, with an increase in unemployment and also in participation in the labor market, allowing them to consider the drop in pressure on wages .

However, the acceleration in price growth in the manufacturing sector, according to the monthly ISM index, reminded them soon following that the fight once morest inflation was still far from over, reducing the gains of the Dow Jones to 0 .33%, of the S&P 500 at 0.18% and dragging the Nasdaq into the red (-0.02%).
