    European markets rebounded after the Euro Area industrial production unexpectedly rose and second quarter GDP expanded. 

    The DAX index increased 0.2% to 15,802.60, the CAC-40 index rose 0.2% to 7,279.98 and the FTSE 100 index fell 0.5% to 7,357.73.  

    The yield on German government bonds traded at a one-month high, lifting yields in the region for other nations as traders assessed inflation risks. 

    Carlsberg AS declined 2.4% to DKK 996.80 despite the company slightly lifting its 2023 annual outlook. 

    Alcon AG declined 1.1% to CHF 69.88 despite the Swiss eye-care firm reporting an increase in second quarter revenue and the company lifting its 2023 full-year outlook.

    Mining companies extended losses for the second week in a row after China reported weak new home sales data today following weak retail sales, industrial production and unemployment data a day earlier. 

    Anglo American declined and extended this year's loss to 39% and Glencore fell 0.1% and 23% respectively. 

    Admiral Group Plc soared 5.8% to 2,327.0 pence after the insurance company reported a rise in first-half profit. 

    Essentra PLC declined 0.9% to 154.40 pence after the plastics and fiber products maker said first-half revenue declined 5.5% from a year ago.
