European shares rose on Tuesday, mirroring a recovery in global markets after the previous day's mauling, with energy and technology stocks leading the way as a slew of upbeat corporate earnings also lifted sentiment.

The STOXX 600 closed 0.3% higher, after logging its steepest three-day decline since June 2022 and closing below the key 500-point mark for a second day on Monday on US recession fears.
