The European indices closed mostly lower following a subdued trading session, with notable declines in the DAX and FTSE 100, which may signal lingering investor caution. Conversely, the IBEX 35 showed some resilience, indicating a divergence in regional performance that could reflect specific local factors or investor sentiment. This mixed performance could set the tone for the upcoming US session, particularly if investors weigh European market health against upcoming US economic indicators.
