Tech selloff spreads to European stocks
- European shares rose on Tuesday to distance themselves further from a 3-1/2 month low hit during the previous session, aided by auto stocks which gained on broker recommendations.
“The best performing stocks in Europe today have a short squeeze flavor, but equally a lean toward value-style bargain hunting ... auto parts also rallying,” said a trader, pointing to Hella and Continental AG, which surged 5.4% and 3.2%, respectively.Volkswagen, which RBC also rated “outperform”, added 3.3%. Sources told Reuters the firm is likely to launch the sale of transmissions maker Renk in the autumn, aiming to free up funds to invest more in electric vehicles.
Lenders in Italy have been under pressure over the last month, hurt by the country’s differences with the European Union, a possible 3 billion euro fine and concerns about its debt burden. Europe’s banks rose 2.1%. The sector’s juicy 5.9% dividend yield, as per Refinitiv Eikon data, makes it a far riskier holding compared to safe-haven German bonds, whose yields are negative up to at least the 10-year maturity.

Law-Abiding Citizen Keeps Herself On Track With Weekly Cheat DayNEW YORK—Saying that sometimes she just needs a little break from her daily regimen, law-abiding citizen Karen Garver told reporters Tuesday that she keeps herself on track with a weekly cheat day in which she allows herself to commit any crime she wants. “I’m pretty strict Sunday through Friday, but come Saturday I tell myself it’s okay to bend the rules a little and improperly dispose of hazardous substances or rob a liquor store,” said Garver, explaining that by setting aside one day a week during which she can evade tax regulations, cause thousands of dollars in property damage, or assault a stranger, she’s able to resist temptation the rest of the week. “Being able to pause from living within the law now and then definitely helps keep me on the right path. Sometimes I’ll make a big day out of it with my girlfriends and we’ll all go out and set a forest fire, and then lead police on a high-speed chase through a crowded residential neighborhood.” Garver said she will let herself off the leash entirely during an upcoming 10-day vacation, however, noting that she doesn’t know when she’ll ever be back to Europe and therefore plans to break whatever Italian laws she pleases.
