The STOXX Europe 600 index fell by approximately 1%, closing around 574.81 points, reflecting a decline driven by growing fears of an AI bubble and broader economic concerns. The market mood was cautious due to worries about stretched valuations in the AI sector and fading expectations for a U.S. Federal Reserve rate cut in December.

Tech stocks were particularly affected with companies like ASML Holding N.V.  down 1.3%, SAP SE  down 2.7%, Infineon Technologies, and Prosus experiencing notable declines. Other significant losers included Airbus, Banco Santander, and Rheinmetall, which faced drops between about 1.8% to 4.2%. The Euro Area stock index EU50 also dropped roughly 1.8%, marking a broad-based loss across European markets including Germany’s DAX and France’s CAC 40.

Investor caution was also heightened by weak monthly economic data from China, contributing to the risk-off sentiment in global markets. The European equity pullback was consistent with a global sell-off in tech and cyclicals amid uncertainty over economic growth and monetary policy.
