European stock markets mid-session: European shares are trading higher today

As oil prices recovered from early session/5-1/2-year lows European stock indices followed - driven by the energy sector. Indices recouped some of last week's losses. The FTSE 100 index added +0.37% quoted at 6,324.09 points. U.K. CBI industrial trends orders rose unexpectedly from 3 to 5. France's CAC 40 gained +0.37% trading at 4,124.03 and Germany's DAX 30 is up +0.14 at 9,608.17 points. Markets await the NY Fed Empire State Manufacturing Index and data on U.S. Industrial production later in the day.
