In the low-liquidity trading environment on Christmas Eve, the French and UK stock markets performed lackluster, while most major European stock markets were closed due to the Christmas holidays. The European Stoxx 600 Index hit another record high on Tuesday, and is expected to record annual gains for the third year in a row, and is moving towards one of the strongest performing quarters in two years, mainly supported by continued market optimism about global economic growth prospects and falling borrowing costs. Ipek Ozkardeskaya, senior analyst at Swissquote Bank, said that the stock market is likely to continue to rise in the last few trading days of the year. But then what? Reality can have an impact. Some sectors of the tech sector have shown signs of a bubble, and next year's earnings season will no longer focus on bright numbers, but more on real sources of revenue.
