European
Shares Fall Amid Declining Optimism
Brussels,
12 Jun (ONA) — European shares dropped today, in their fourth
straight session of declines, as trade optimism stemming from
US-China trade talks declined, while mounting geopolitical tensions led to
themarkets being more cautious.
The
pan-European STOXX 600 was down 0.4 percent at 549.41 points, while most
regional bourses were also in the red.
In
the market, travel and leisure stocks were the worst hit, down 1.7 percent,
while industrial miners fell 1.1 percent.
