European stocks closed lower on Tuesday, with the STOXX 50 down 0.5% and the broader STOXX 600 slipping 0.4%, as optimism around Russia–Ukraine peace efforts prompted investors to reassess the outlook for military spending and weighed on defense shares.
Defense names declined sharply, led by Rheinmetall (-4.6%), alongside losses in BAE Systems (-1.7%), Leonardo (-3.9%) and Thales (-1.6%). Technology heavyweights also pressured the market, with ASML Holding down 2.1% and SAP falling 1.4%, as softer global growth signals dampened appetite for cyclical tech exposure.
In contrast, LVMH outperformed, rising 1.7% on relative resilience in luxury demand. On the macro front, flash PMI data reinforced a mixed economic picture, with euro area private-sector activity slowing as services momentum cooled and manufacturing weakened further, driven largely by deteriorating conditions in Germany, while France's services sector slowed more sharply than expected.
