Global Markets:

European stocks mostly declined while Asian markets ended mixed on Monday as global markets struggled to gain positive momentum and recover from last week's volatility.

Markets in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand are closed for a holiday on Monday.

Investors are also keeping a close eye on geopolitical developments as Finland and Sweden moved closer to applying for membership in NATO, ending years of neutrality as Russia's invasion of Ukraine forced the two Nordic nations to reassess their positions.

The entry of Sweden and Finland would significantly extend the alliance's border with Russia, a move that will annoy Moscow which has consistently warned the pair of potential consequences.

The war in Ukraine is severely curtailing the European Union's economic rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic with this year's growth forecast sharply revised down, the European Commission warned on Monday.

It lowered its economic growth forecast for the eurozone in 2022 by 1.3 points to 2.7% and increased its inflation forecast by 3.5 points to 6.1%. Inflation for the whole of the EU is meanwhile expected to reach 6.8% this year.

There is no doubt that the EU economy is going through a difficult period due to Russia's war against Ukraine, and we have revised our forecast downwards accordingly, European Commission Vice-President Valdis Dombrovskis reportedly said.

The most important negative factor is soaring energy prices, which are driving inflation to record levels and weighing on European businesses and households, he reportedly added.

Meanwhile, China's April retail sales plunged 11.1% on the year, while industrial output fell 2.9%, pointing to the deep damage COVID lockdowns were doing to the world's second-largest economy.

US stock market witnessed a relief rally on Friday. The Dow rose 466.36 points, or 1.47%, while the S&P 500 climbed 2.39%. The Nasdaq Composite jumped 3.82% and posted its strongest one-day gain since November 2020. Still, all three averages posted losing weeks.
