FTSE and DAX see (dead cat?) bounce as Eurogroup grants Greece latest €7.5bn tranche




Jumping by 1% the FTSE enjoyed the recovery from its commodity and finance stocks this Friday, with Brent Crude now back approaching $48 per barrel. It seems that the UK index may have found its trading bracket for the next week, with it struggling to push significantly above 6000 but failing to fall too far below 5900. Of course as those pre-referendum fears really ramp up next week that could change, but for now the FTSE appears to be settling into that 100 point range.

The Eurozone saw a similar (dead cat?) bounce this morning, the DAX and CAC rising 1.3% and 1.4% respectively. Unlike the FTSE, however, the region’s indices arguably had something to celebrate, with European Commissioner Pierre Moscovici revealing that yesterday’s Eurogroup meeting had seen the finance ministers sign off on Greece’s latest €7.5 billion tranche of funding just in time for the country’s hefty July loan repayments.
