<\/div>\n

European stocks opened broadly lower on Wednesday, erasing the previous session’s positive start to the month as a wave of selling in technology shares spread from the US and Asia, fueled by growing investor anxiety over stretched valuations.<\/p>\n

The pan-European Stoxx 600 index was down 0.4% shortly after the opening bell, with most major bourses and sectors trading in negative territory. <\/p>\n

The declines were led by Germany\u2019s DAX, which fell 0.7%, and France\u2019s CAC 40, which dropped 0.4%.<\/p>\n

The primary driver of the negative sentiment was a sharp sell-off in technology stocks, which followed steep declines in the US on Tuesday. <\/p>\n

The Stoxx 600 Europe Technology Index fell 1.2% in early trade, as investors took profits from the market’s most crowded trade.<\/p>\n

This mirrors a wider global trend, with futures tied to the tech-heavy Nasdaq sliding overnight and Japan\u2019s Nikkei 225 plunging below the 50,000 mark as investors fled AI-related stocks. <\/p>\n

The cautious mood was further compounded by recent warnings from the CEOs of Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, who advised investors to brace for a market downturn.<\/p>\n

Earnings in focus as Novo Nordisk, BMW report<\/h2>\n

It is also another busy day for corporate earnings in Europe. Shares of Danish pharmaceutical giant\u00a0Novo Nordisk\u00a0initially fell as much as 4.5% before reversing course. <\/p>\n

The company posted third-quarter net profits of 20 billion Danish kroner ($3.1 billion), in line with analyst expectations.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, shares of German automaker\u00a0BMW\u00a0fell 1.5% after it reported third-quarter earnings before interest of 2.3 billion euros, also meeting analysts’ forecasts.<\/p>\n

Central banks and economic data on the radar<\/h2>\n

Beyond corporate results, investors are also watching for key economic and policy updates. Sweden\u2019s Riksbank is set to announce its latest interest rate decision on Wednesday. <\/p>\n

On the data front, markets will be parsing the latest German factory orders, U.K. new car sales, and purchasing managers\u2019 index (PMI) data from across the European region.<\/p>\n
