Here&#8217;s how things are shaping up after the opening hour:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Eurostoxx +0.8%<\/li>\n<li>Germany DAX +0.5%<\/li>\n<li>France CAC 40 +0.5%<\/li>\n<li>UK FTSE +0.4%<\/li>\n<li>Spain IBEX +1.7%<\/li>\n<li>Italy FTSE MIB +1.3%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\" class=\"text-align-justify\">Meanwhile, S&amp;P 500 futures and Nasdaq futures are currently up by 0.2% and 0.1% respectively. That&#8217;s quite the turnaround for the latter, considering that Nasdaq futures were down by more than 2% at one point earlier in the day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\" class=\"text-align-justify\">The initial market reaction to the US midterm election results was a rather ugly one, with the Democratic sweep raising concerns over tighter AI regulation and potential restrictions on data centre expansion. That&#8217;s putting investors in a rather tricky spot, especially given how much the AI spending boom has contributed to the market rally this year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\" class=\"text-align-justify\">For now, I would say the bounce is certainly encouraging. But with uncertainty still hanging over the outlook for AI infrastructure spending, there&#8217;s a difference between markets finding some breathing room and investors being ready to pile back into risk assets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\" class=\"text-align-justify\">If anything else, the\u00a0recovery in US futures is at least helping broader risk sentiment to shake off the earlier gloom. However,\u00a0Wall Street&#8217;s performance later today will be the more important test of whether this rebound has legs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\" class=\"text-align-justify\">\n<p>                            This article was written by Justin Low at investinglive.com.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>European stocks are faring better in the early stages today with gains\u00a0across the board as investors find some relief with US futures continuing to claw back earlier losses.
