Today, European stocks rose continuing in yesterday’s trend, as the plan from the European Central Bank (ECB) for bond buying and for further stimulus of the economy gave boost in European Markets.
On the other hand the Nonfarm Payrolls (Aug) report showed less-than-expected growth in jobs of only 96,000 and as a result the U.S. dollar declined. Although U.S. stocks rose because the low jobs growth gave feed to the investor’s bet that the Federal Reserve will pop up money, in order to support the economy, probably next week.
