In corporate news, UBS announced an estimated financial impact of approximately $17 billion resulting from the acquisition of Credit Suisse. Additionally, an investor consortium, including Blackstone and Reuters, sold around £2.7 billion worth of London Stock Exchange Group stock. The pan-European STOXX 600 index decreased by 0.1% to 464 points. However, Germany's DAX 40 index managed to gain 0.3%, reaching 15,940 points, thanks to a 2% surge in Siemens' shares. The German group raised its full-year sales and profit guidance after reporting better-than-expected Q2 sales. Conversely, Commerzbank shares declined by 7% despite strong Q1 results, as the bank indicated that income from higher interest rates may have peaked.
