The Ibex seeks to strengthen above 19,000 points on a semi-holiday session

European stock futures indicate a positive opening, as investors monitor oil prices and debt interest rates, with the start of the earnings season also in focus. The Ibex is set to open at 19,033 points, after a 0.3% loss last week, and a 0.55% gain on Friday. Oil prices are at $104 per barrel, influenced by geopolitical tensions, including a potential truce between Russia and Ukraine announced by US President Donald Trump, and attacks on Saudi Arabia's Riyadh airport by Yemeni Houthi rebels.

This week, investors will watch for earnings reports from major US banks, including JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, and Citigroup, starting on Tuesday.
