Geopolitical Tensions<\/span><\/h2>\n

As the US continued airstrikes against the Sunni militants in Iraq, the Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki deployed troops across the streets of the capital, Baghdad.\u00a0 Traders are raising concerns over the crises and hoping the US troops will support the Iraqi government to reclaim the Islamic State (formerly known as ISIS) fighters.<\/p>\n

Traders continue to focus on the situation in Gaza, as Israel and Gaza began a new 72-hour ceasefire on Monday after Gaza militants broke the previous ceasefire by firing rockets into Israel, according to reports.<\/p>\n

\u201cGeopolitical risk in the Middle East and Ukraine will continue to dominate the headlines,\u201d Neil MacKinnon of VTB Capital wrote in a note on Monday. \u201cThe major central banks are unlikely to do anything in the interim and the backdrop only encourages the doves,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

European Stocks<\/span><\/h2>\n

The European Euro Stoxx 50 climbed 1.11% higher to 3,040.07 at the time of writing, while the French CAC 40 index added 0.89% to 4,184.87 at the time of writing. While the German DAX edged 1.34% higher to 9,129.70 and UK\u2019s benchmark FTSE 100 rose 0.65% to 6,610.51.<\/p>\n
