Investor sentiment ‘improving’

Investor sentiment is improving across the eurozone, according to two major surveys just released.

The Sentix Investor Confidence Index has reached its highest level this year, while the Barclays Global Macro Survey finds that two-thirds of respondents do not expect the eurozone to break up over the next 12 months.

The Sentix Index went from -18.8 in November to -16.8 in December, which is the fourth monthly increase in a row and is now at its highest reading in 2012.
