Euro trading at a 7-month low
European stocks leapt Tuesday, with a climb in energy shares
among those leading the region's benchmark toward its biggest rise
in nearly a month.
The Stoxx Europe 600 popped up 1.9% to 377.68, with all sectors
advancing, led by a roughly 3% rise for the oil and gas group . The
pan-European benchmark is on pace for its best daily gain since
Oct. 22, FactSet data showed.
Energy stocks pushed higher following Monday's 2.5% rally in oil
prices
(http://www.marketwatch.com/story/oil-futures-rise-on-worries-about-supply-disruptions-2015-11-16)
, in part on news that output from the Organization of the
Petroleum Exporting Countries fell for a third consecutive
month.
In the group, Spanish oil producer Repsol SA (REPYY) tacked on
3.8% as did shares of Portuguese oil producer Galp Energia SGPS
(GALP.LB) . Tullow Oil (TLW.LN) rose 3.5%, and France's Total SA
(TOT) stepped up 2.6%.
Total's rise helped lift France's CAC 40 up 2.2% to 4,907.20,
while Galp's gain aided in a 2.2% advance in Portugal's PSI 20
.
Meanwhile, a drive lower in the euro benefited shares of
exporters in Germany, Europe's largest economy. The DAX 30 index
gained 1.6% to 10,888.64. The euro was down 0.2% at $1.0664, and
dipped below $1.0650 for the first time since April.
"There is still a continually strong divergence in both monetary
and economic sentiment between the United States and Europe that is
consistently encouraging sellers to attack," the eurodollar
currency pair, said FXTM research analyst Lukman Otunuga in a
note.
In London, FTSE 100 rose 1.7% to 6,252.81.
The European travel and leisure sector was recovering from
losses Monday, which were spurred by the terrorist attacks that
left at least 132 people in Paris. Shares of travel-services
provider Thomas Cook Group PLC (TCG.LN) rose 0.7%, and French
hotels company AccorHotels SA (AC.FR) picked up 1%.
