European stocks closed mostly lower on Thursday, pressured by a mix of corporate earnings reports as markets continued to assess the impact of potential U.S. trade barriers and higher defense spending by EU members. The euro zone STOXX 50 closed flat at 5,453, maintaining yesterday's decline from Monday's record high, while the STOXX 600 edged down 0.2% to 551. Airbus fell 2.3% after posting downbeat results and hinting it may have to delay U.S. deliveries to focus on other customers if the U.S. government follows through on tariffs. Mercedes-Benz, meanwhile, reported a 40% drop in its car division in 2024. Schneider Electric, on the other hand, jumped 3% after posting record sales and profits for 2024, while providing strong guidance for 2025. (Newsmaker23)
