March 29 () –
The Ibex 35 traded in the mid-session this Wednesday with an advance of 1.02%, which brought it to stand at 9,035 points, in a day with few references and in which investors continue to pay attention to the financial sector, which seems to have tempered the turmoil it has experienced in recent weeks following the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Credit Suisse.
Before the opening of the market, the appointment, as of April 5, as CEO and Chairman of the Executive Board of UBS of Sergio P. Ermotti, who was already the bank’s top executive between 2011 and 2020, was announced.
Additionally, investors will also remain attentive to the non-monetary policy meeting of the European Central Bank (ECB). However, the key appointments will be this Thursday and Friday, when the inflation data in Europe and the United States will be released.
In this context, Bankinter was the most bullish value, with a revaluation of 2.64%, followed by Colonial (+2.53%), ArcelorMittal (+2.44%), Merlin (+1.84%), Santander (+1.70%) and BBVA (+1.58%). On the other hand, only Grifols (-0.27%), Acciona Energía (-0.12%) and Solaria (-0.03%) traded negatively.
The rest of the European stock markets were also trading positive, with an advance of 1.33% in Paris, 0.99% in Milan, 0.89% in Frankfurt and 0.69% in London.
At the opening of the stock market, the price of a barrel of Brent quality oil, a reference for the Old Continent, rose 0.79%, to $79.27, while Texas stood at $73.96, a 1.04% more.
In the currency market, the price of the euro against the dollar stood at 1.0859 ‘green bills’, while the risk premium was around 103.3 basis points, with the interest required on the 10-year bond at the 3.296%.
