European markets opened today, Thursday, December 18, 2025, with a cautious attitude. Investors await the latest move from the European Central Bank (ECB), which is expected to hold interest rates. Inflation in the eurozone has begun to stabilize, so the ECB has chosen not to rush into policy changes to maintain economic stability.
The latest inflation data shows that price pressures have not increased sharply. This signals that economic conditions are still under control, although growth is not yet fully robust. This situation has led market participants to choose to wait before making major trading decisions.
Meanwhile, European stock markets opened with mixed movements. Investors are also paying attention to global market conditions, including movements on Wall Street and the policies of other central banks. This uncertainty has caused European markets to tend to move slowly at the start of trading today. (az)
