European markets began the abbreviated last week of the year on a positive note.


The DAX was up 0.8%, the CAC 40 was up 1.05%, and the Euro Stoxx 50 was up 0.94% as of 03:10 ET (08:10 GMT).


On January 8, Chinese officials will no longer need foreigners entering the country to undergo quarantine. This is the most significant international news to emerge from China. The idea of China's openness might be the justification for market gains. The Nikkei 225 and the Shanghai Composite both ended the day with gains, with the Nikkei 225 gaining 0.16% and the Shanghai Composite gaining 1%.


At 03:15 ET (08:15 GMT), the EUR/USD was also up 0.1%, while the US Dollar Index fell 0.2%, a possible indication of a risk-on Santa rally to close out the year.


In keeping with the holiday schedule, today's economic calendar is somewhat light, with the Case-Shiller housing index, U.S. retail inventories, and French bond auctions serving as highlights.


LVMH Mot Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE (EPA:LVMH) (+2%), Airbus Group SE (EPA:AIR) (+1.7%), TotalEnergies SE (EPA:TTEF) (+1.5%), Eni SpA (BIT:ENI) (+1.4%), and BASF SE (ETR:BASFN) (+1.3%) were among the leading Euro Stoxx 50 gainers. Grifols SA (BME:GRLS) was the most significant decliner, down 2%. Very few large European equities were in the red.


Crude Oil WTI Futures traded down 0.1%, while Brent Oil Futures declined 0.15 % on commodities markets. Gold Futures resumed their strong pace at the end of the year, trading 0.65% higher.
