Germany's DAX equity market hit a record high on Monday as
European shares resumed their rally on the back of an improving
outlook for the region's economy.
The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 index rose 0.4 percent to
1,302.68 points in mid-session trading, close to a 5-year high of
1,316.42 points reached earlier this month.
The euro zone's blue-chip Euro STOXX 50 index rose 0.5 percent to
3,071.14 points while the DAX was up by 0.5 percent at 9,212.92
points, having earlier rallied to an all-time high of 9,220.70 points.
Investors and traders said that even if European equity markets were
prone to the odd short-term dip, the longer-term outlook for 2014
remained positive, given signs of a gradual improvement in the
region's economy from the effects of the euro zone's sovereign debt
crisis of the last few years.
On Monday, European Union data showed that the euro zone's trade
surplus grew more than expected in September, while the
Bundesbank said Germany would consolidate its economic recovery
in coming months.

The European Central Bank's decision earlier this month to cut
interest rates to a record low of 0.25 percent has provided
encouragement for investors, signalling the bank's intent to support
the economic recovery.
"Stable to slightly higher equity markets are expected in the near
term," said Eric Bendahan, European equity fund manager at Swiss
bank and fund management group SYZ.
"An improving economy was the missing piece in the puzzle but
leading indicators in the developed world and in Europe are now
supportive, confirming the return to a growth environment with growth
being more balanced between northern and southern Europe," he
added.
RWE AND SONOVO RISE
Richard Edwards, head of trading and research firm HED Capital,
favoured the DAX over rival markets in France, Spain and Italy,
arguing that the German economy appeared in better shape with its
exporters well-placed to benefit from any weakness in the euro.
Edwards backed buying the DAX on days when it fell while also
selling the French, Spanish and Italian equity markets when they rose
in order to make the most gains.
"We've favoured Germany for a long time over the rest," he said.
German utility RWE topped the DAX leaderboard with a 7.7 percent
rise, which traders attributed to Exane BNP Paribas' upgrade on the
stock to "outperform" from "neutral".
Hearing aid company Sonova also rose 6.7 percent after raising its
full-year guidance.
The FTSEurofirst 300 has risen around 15 percent since the start of
2013, while the Euro STOXX 50 has advanced by around 17 percent.
The DAX has risen 21 percent.
