Most European Stock Exchanges close lower after US attack on Iran

European stock markets closed mostly lower this Tuesday (26), giving back part of the gains obtained on Monday (25). US attacks against Iran have increased doubts about progress in peace negotiations. Contrary to its peers, the London Stock Exchange rose when trading resumed after the holiday.

In London, the FTSE 100 closed up 0.24%, at 10,491 points. In Frankfurt, the DAX fell 0.72%, to 25,205 points. In Paris, the CAC 40 fell 1.03%, to 8173 points. In Milan, the FTSE MIB dropped 0.64%, to 49,899 points. In Madrid, the Ibex 35 lost 0.47%, to 18,300 points. In Lisbon, the PSI 20 closed down 0.31%, at 9,195 points. Quotes are preliminary.

The enthusiasm seen on Monday (25) with the apparent easing of tensions in the Middle East has now given way to caution among investors. The United States Central Command (Centcom) reported having carried out "self-defense" attacks in southern Iran, while the Persian country's Foreign Ministry accused Washington of violating the current ceasefire by promoting "illegal and provocative actions" against Iranian vessels in the Persian Gulf.
