STOXX 600 STEADY, SET FOR WEEKLY LOSS
Europe's STOXX 600 is little changed on Friday but still heading for a weekly loss in a week that included Trump's return to the White House, the collapse of the German government and a Fed rate cut.
The pan-European benchmark .STOXX is trading flat at 509.95 points, down 0.2% for the week and on track for its third straight weekly decline.
Britain's FTSE .FTSE, France's CAC .FCHI and Germany's DAX are down between 0.2%-0.3%.
China-exposed names are weak after China said it would allow local governments to issue 6 trillion yuan in bonds to swap for off-balance sheet debt, somewhat disappointing markets that were hoping for a larger stimulus announcement.
"China's NPC briefing proved a damp squib," says Saxo Bank head of commodity strategy, Ole S Hansen on X.
Miners .SXPP are the worst performing sector in Europe, down 1.7%, followed by luxury .STXLUXP names.
The luxury sector is also being hit by a disappointing earnings update from Richemont CFR.S, who flagged tough conditions in China as contributing to a dip in quarterly sales.
In other corporate news, shares of British Airways parent IAG ICAG.L are up almost 7% after a quarterly profit beat.
British homebuilder Vistry VTYV.L is down almost 15% after it warned on profit for the second time in a month, citing cost pressures.
