The AEX was trading at 1,141.95 points at 13:03 Berlin time on Friday, November 13, according to the latest AEX market quote. Based on Thursday's close of 1,140.12 points, the index was 1.83 points, or 0.16%, higher. The Amsterdam session was still under way, making this an intraday reading rather than a closing level.
Technology stocks remain a market focus
The index had started the day lower. DeBeurs.nl reported that the AEX opened at 1,137.95 points, down 0.2%, with Prosus and semiconductor stocks among the weakest names. The report linked the cautious tone to losses on Wall Street, uncertainty surrounding Nvidia after the departure of chief executive Jensen Huang and concerns about US monetary policy.
Prosus was also under pressure after weakness in Tencent in Hong Kong, while ASML, ASMI and Besi opened lower. Ahold Delhaize and Shell were among the stocks providing support at the start of trading. Thursday's session had ended with the AEX at 1,140.12 points, down 0.44%, as technology, basic-materials and financial stocks weakened, according to Investing.com.
Afternoon data sets the next test
European equities were generally softer after a four-session advance, with investors reassessing expectations for Federal Reserve policy and monitoring continuing volatility in artificial-intelligence shares. Yahoo Finance reported that markets were also watching the euro area's third-quarter growth figures, central-bank commentary and US producer-price data.
For the AEX, the modest move above Thursday's close indicated a partial recovery from the opening weakness, but did not by itself establish a change in the broader direction. The index remained sensitive to movements in large technology constituents and to the interpretation of the upcoming US inflation-related data. Further market direction was therefore likely to depend on the afternoon releases and subsequent US trading.
