MADRID 28 Oct. () –

The Ibex 35 closed this Monday’s session with an increase of 0.77% compared to Friday, finally reaching 11,904 points in a day that has been marked by the start of business results and the fluctuation in oil prices .

The market has started the week with its sights set on the publication of company results. In the Spanish market, Santander, Mapfre, Endesa, Aena, Naturgy, CaixaBank, BBVA, Banco Sabadell and Indra stand out, among others.

At the international level, the accounts of large multinationals will also be known, especially the technology companies AMD, Intel, Alphabet, Meta, Apple or Amazon.

In this context, ArcelorMittal has finished as the value with the highest increase of the day (+3.24%), ahead of Rovi (+2.01%), Fluidra (+1.91%), Amadeus (+1, 90%), Logista (+1.88%) and Mapfre (+1.83%).
