this post has been viewed 31 times
On Thursday European and U.S indices fell, after weak data from the United States, Europe and China fueled global growth worries, driving investors to perceived safe-haven assets. The data signaled that the Chinese economy remains on the path of slowdown with a seventh quarter of slowing annual growth, while U.S. manufacturing had its weakest quarter in three years and conditions at European businesses worsened. Although affected by dim macro data, European equities bounced off the day’s lows as a number of investors took advantage of the dips to lift their exposure to equities.
