There are also couple of stocks moving over in Europe today worth flagging:
- Philips: The Dutch medical equipment group has bounced by almost 9% after it saw new orders rise for the first time in two years, indicating concerns about faulty sleep apnea machines that have dogged the company are beginning to abate.
- Heineken: The beer maker’s shares have fallen by about 6% after it narrowed its guidance owing to the hefty writedown it is taking on its stake in China’s biggest brewer and with its growth rate slipping a touch below expectations.
