MADRID, 31 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) -
The Ibex 35 has closed the month of January this Tuesday at 9,034 points, which represents an increase of 9.78% compared to the end of December, given the expectation that the central banks will slow down their path of monetary normalization.
Compared to Monday, the selective of the Spanish markets has experienced a contraction of 0.17%, with more than half of the values experiencing negative daily evolutions.
"Markets have been buoyed by the possibility of central banks easing the pace of interest rate hikes, the stabilization of energy commodities and the reopening of the Chinese economy. Investors are confident of a 'soft landing' , which would mean that central banks are capable of stabilizing prices without the economy suffering a sharp contraction," said XTB analyst Joaquín Robles.
"During the next few months, volatility could spike again, since most of the concerns of investors remain unresolved," the expert warned.
