European stock exchanges closed in the negative, oil fell by 5%

The main European stock indexes finished yesterday's trading with decline - DAX (Germany) lost 0.073%, FTSE 100 (UK) - 0.2%, CAC 40 (France) - 0.83%. Pessimism on the stock exchanges is caused by the risk of cessation of energy supplies from Russia, which may worsen the economic situation in the region. According to IG analyst Chris Boshan, refusal of Russian energy carriers increases the possibility of recession in Europe, which is already quite high. This makes the region even less economically attractive. Its already high energy prices will rise even higher as a result, reports The Wall Street Journal. By yesterday evening's trading session oil had fallen in price by more than 5% - the current situation in the world does not allow us to expect an oversupply. On the one hand, there is a risk of supply shortages from Russia, on the other hand, the political crisis in Libya disturbs crude exports. In addition to disruptions at the country's fields, two of its ports, where shipments were made, have suspended their work, RBC reports.
