The Ibex 35 opens the session with no significant changes, while the rest of the European indices drop more than 0.20%. Repsol rises with oil above $100, and ACS leads the losses.

The Ibex 35 starts the day without a clear direction and is trading flat, despite the fact that other European markets are experiencing declines of over 0.20%. According to XTB, the German index is nearing a 1% drop, and geopolitical tensions and social conflicts remain present in the markets.

In the bond market, the French ten-year bond is trading with a yield of 4.9%, just shy of the 5% threshold.

At the top of the index, Banco Sabadell is the company with the largest gains, although it is losing momentum as the session progresses. Repsol advances thanks to the rising oil prices, with the December futures contract above $100. Enagás also rises, having reported its results for the first nine months of 2026, with a recurring net profit 5.4% lower year-on-year, excluding asset rotation. The company has confirmed its annual target, a piece of news that has reassured investors.

At the bottom of the table, ACS is the company that declines the most, in line with the falls in the Nasdaq 100 futures and uncertainty surrounding the results of companies linked to artificial intelligence. Solaria is also trending downwards.
