Support is coming again from the US, where the Wall Street stock market has largely recovered from the previous day’s losses. The tech-heavy Nasdaq exchanges even closed higher on Wednesday.

On Wednesday, on the second day of his appearance before Congress, US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell dampened concerns about interest rates rising again more quickly. “We haven’t made a decision about the March session yet,” he said. His statements on Tuesday before the US Senate Banking Committee were still clearly interpreted in the direction of more significant interest rate hikes.
