STOXX AT 5-WEEK HIGHS, AIR FRANCE LEADS AIRLINES LOWER (0728 GMT)
European shares are off to a positive start with the STOXX 600 benchmark holding at
five-week highs, up just marginally, underpinned by hopes of central bank stimulus and fresh
weakness in the pound that's lifting the international heavyweights of Britain's FTSE.
Among stock movers, airlines have come under pressure with Air France down 6.4%
after the company said "close-in bookings in the peak travel period were weaker than foreseen in
view of softening macro-economic environment".
"The comment... implies downside risk to estimates and reads across negatively to the other
European airlines," say Liberum analyst Gerald Khoo. Traders also cited a Les Echos report
saying Air France could be interested in Aigle Azur.
IAG shares are down 1.6% as British Airways pilots began a 48-hour strike today,
grounding nearly all its flights and disrupting the plans of thousands travellers, while easyJet
is down 1.9%, Lufthansa down 1.2% and Ryanair down 0.3%.
Meanwhile, a UBS upgrade to buy is lifting ProsiebenSat shares up 3.6% to the top
of the STOXX.

EUROPE SEEN SLIGHTLY UP BEFORE ECB LATER IN THE WEEK (0532 GMT)
European shares are expected open mostly higher ahead of the European Central Bank meeting
later this week where the central bank is expected to unveil a comprehensive stimulus package.
Spreadbetters expect at IG London's FTSE to open 22 points higher at 7,304, Frankfurt's DAX
to open 15 points higher at 12,206, and Paris' CAC to open 6 points lower at 5,598.
"Doves will rather be flying over the European Central Bank (ECB) this week. Rising trade
tensions, weakening global demand and Brexit uncertainties have recently taken their toll on the
Euro zone’s economy," says Ipek Ozkardeskaya, Senior Market Analyst at LCG.
Over in Asia, stocks edged higher amid a cautious market mood as investors hoped for
stimulus to support growth in the world's major economies.
