EUROPEAN SHARES

European shares dipped shortly after the opening bell on Monday, extending declines seen in Asia overnight, while US futures also point to a bearish open as the banking crisis keeps pressuring market sentiment.
Financial stocks remain the worst performers so far, as worries of a systemic risk in the banking sector linger after the confirmed takeover of Credit Suisse by UBS failed to bring back confidence. Investors are sending benchmarks towards major support levels, limiting their exposure to riskier assets as they still struggle to assess the situation on Financials, ahead of another busy week where the Federal Reserve is expected to decide on rates as well as provide more clues on how monetary policy will be impacted by the recent turmoil.
We expect volatile market conditions this week as traders wait for another batch of major macro data alongside speeches and decisions from central bank officials such as the ECB, the Fed, the SNB, the BoE as well as the EU leaders’ summit.
The Spanish stock index has registered the worst performance so far in Europe, as prices flirt with the 8,600.0pts level following a significant bearish gap at the open. With the 8,635.0pts level now broken, an extension of the current pull-back towards the 8,430.0pts / 8,360.0pts zone remains the most likely scenario.
