El Ibex se mantiene en guardia

Los mensajes que surjan de la reunión entre Donald Trump y Xi Jinping mantienen en vilo a los mercados, atenazados nuevamente por el precio superior a los 100 dólares del petróleo y la escalada en los intereses de la deuda. El Ibex vuelve a activar el freno. Leer

The Ibex remains vigilant as market pressures persist, driven by oil prices above $100 and rising debt interest rates. Repsol and Solaria provide support to the Ibex, but investors are cautious due to an uncertain day ahead. The main focus is on the anticipated meeting between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping, with cordial initial receptions and potential developments on trade wars, AI development, and geopolitical conflicts.

Fluctuations in the global economy, such as high oil prices, the US debt interest rates, and China's CSI 300 index decline, create uncertainty in the markets. While Repsol and Solaria appear to offer some relief, the Ibex faces challenges from other companies like Inditex and H&M. The European Stoxx 600 index also shows slight declines.

Technology stocks, particularly those related to chips, are experiencing general declines, while H&M's stock is down after reporting its results. BMW's decline is attributed to a downgrade by HSBC, and Stellantis also saw a drop in vehicle sales in August. Despite these negative indicators, the British pound and the euro briefly recovered, while Bitcoin struggled to maintain its upward momentum, falling below $85,000.
