European stocks rise at open

LONDON, (APP/AFP) – Europe’s main stock markets climbed
at the start of trading on Tuesday, but at a much calmer pace compared with the previous session.
London’s benchmark FTSE 100 index gained 0.2 percent to 6,697.43
points compared with Monday’s close.
In the eurozone, Frankfurt’s DAX 30 won 0.2 percent to 9,850.40
points and the Paris CAC 40 climbed also by 0.2 percent in value to open at 4,272.45.
Indices had rallied Monday, with Frankfurt surging 2.1 percent,
mainly on the back of strong US jobs data according to traders.
