European stocks rebound at open

LONDON, Jan 18, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – European stocks rebounded at the open on
Friday, buoyed by hopes of a breakthrough in the US-China trade war, which
already lifted markets overnight in Asia and on Wall Street.

London’s benchmark FTSE 100 index climbed 0.6 percent to 6,876.63 points
compared with the close on Thursday.

In the eurozone, Frankfurt’s DAX 30 index jumped 0.8 percent to 11,001.31
points and the Paris CAC 40 gained 0.7 percent to 4,825.97.
