Geopolitical Focus: European markets are set for a mixed opening as attention turns to the U.K.-EU summit in London, where leaders may announce new defense and security agreements, amidst ongoing tensions from Brexit. Additionally, a call between U.S. President Trump and Russian President Putin is expected to address the ceasefire situation in Ukraine.
Market Predictions: Opening calls indicate varied movements across European bourses, with London's FTSE projected to open lower while Germany's DAX, France's CAC 40, and Italy's FTSE MIB are expected to see slight gains.
