EU Market View
Asian equity markets mostly took impetus from the gains on Wall Street where the S&P 500 and the DJIA notched fresh record highs, Nasdaq outperformed. European stock markets are seen opening mixed Friday, as traders digest a positive lead from Wall Street but also fresh Covid worries and weak U.K. growth data. Europe received a positive handover from Wall Street, and then Asia, after President Joe Biden signed his landmark $1.9 trillion covid package into law and held out the prospect of a return to normal life by the July 4 Independence Day holiday.

France reported over 30,000 new coronavirus infections on Wednesday, for the first time in two weeks, prompting the country’s health minister, Olivier Veran, to warn that the Covid-19 situation in greater Paris was worrying.
Oil prices slipped Friday but remained at elevated levels amid confidence about demand recovery in the second half of the year as the global economy regain strength.
