LONDON (AP) – The latest on the turmoil in global financial markets (all times local):
9:05 a.m.
Another solid performance across Asian markets has helped European stocks post further gains, but few market participants are willing to say the recent turmoil has run its course.
The strengthening of the Chinese currency, a rebound in the price of oil and hopes for more central bank stimulus have offered stock markets relief this week.
Following broad-based increases in Asia earlier, European markets have opened in the black, with the Stoxx 600 index up 0.5 percent.
