- European companies with significant exposure to Brazil are worried following U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement of a 50% tariff on Brazilian imports. Telefonica, Santander and Carrefour all generate more than 20% of their revenue in Brazil, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
- European miners are the best-performing sub-sector in the Stoxx 600 index as iron ore and base metals rally after President Donald Trump said the US would begin levying a 50% tariff on copper imports at the start of next month. The Stoxx 600 basic resources index rallied as much as 3.1%. Rio Tinto is the biggest contributor to the gains by index points.
