European stock futures showed moderate gains in early trading sessions from August 11 to August 13, 2025. EuroStoxx 50 futures increased between 0.1% and 0.3%, while DAX futures rose from 0.18% to 0.69%. The FTSE 100 futures mostly remained flat or edged up slightly, ranging from unchanged to a 0.21% increase. By August 13, European equities advanced further, supported by expectations of a U.S. Federal Reserve interest rate cut in September, following recent U.S. CPI data that raised the odds of such a move to 94%. On that day, the STOXX 600 rose 0.4%, the DAX gained 0.6%, and the FTSE 100 increased by 0.18%. Individual stocks such as TUI saw gains due to strong earnings, while E.ON (ticker: EONGY) remained flat despite a profit beat. Other major European indices also closed higher on August 13, including France's CAC 40 up 0.66%, Spain's IBEX up 1.09%, STOXX 50 up 0.96%, and Italy's FTSE MIB up 0.55%.
