The main U.S. stock indices ended Monday in the plus due to activity in the technology sector. At the end of the day, the Nasdaq showed the largest increase - 2.20%, Dow Jones added 0.58%, S&P 500 - 1.41%. The Dow's rise was held back by an 8% collapse in Boeing shares following the temporary suspension of some Boeing 737 MAX 9 airplanes due to a panel that led to the explosion of an Alaska Airlines jetliner last week, Reuters reported.

European indices also closed with growth, which, according to the publication's assessment, contributed to the positivity on U.S. sites. German DAX rose by 0.74%, French CAC 40 - by 0.40%, British FTSE 100 - by a symbolic 0.06%.

Brent crude oil prices fell more than 3% on Monday after Saudi Arabia cut selling prices by $1.5-2 per barrel.
