Market hopes for an imminent agreement on a momentary stimulus package and corporate profits have given the advantage.

It’s a quiet day ahead of the eurozone’s economic calendar. Orders from German factories for June will be delivered this morning.

While we expect the figures to influence corporate profits, U.S. economic knowledge. And the Capitol updates are probably the main drivers.

We have a quiet day ahead of us. Key statistics come with weekly figures for unemployment claims that expire later in the day.

After two consecutive weekly increases, markets will look for a decline in the week ending July 31.

Away from the economic calendar, Capitol Hill’s earnings and updates on the adoption of the COVID-19 stimulus package will continue to influence.
