(AOF) – European markets are expected to pull back at the open after yesterday’s bright red session. The euro closed below par at $0.9936. The risk of a combination of inflation and stagnation in Europe is not inspiring anything beneficial to European investors who are anxiously awaiting the central bankers’ meeting that begins on Thursday in Jackson Hole, US. In Paris, the decline of the CAC40 index, which closed yesterday at 6,378.74 points (-1.80%), is likely to continue, similar to the decline of the EuroStoxx 50 that closed at 3,658.22 points (-1.93%).
