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.
