MADRID, 9 Ago. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Ibex 35 has started the session this Wednesday with a rise of 1.08%, which has taken the Madrid selective up to 9,401.93 points, in a day in which investors will continue to pay attention to the European banking sector, after the decision of the Government of Italy to tax the extraordinary profits of banks with a tax rate of 40%.

The markets could also react to the downgrade by the credit rating agency Moody's of the debt solvency rating of a dozen small and medium-sized banks in the United States, while it has placed it on review for a possible cut of 'rating' six other larger banks and has reviewed the perspective of the ratings of eleven more entities.

In the macro field, China's inflation will be published this Wednesday; on Thursday, the CPI for Italy and the United States, while on Friday the data for British GDP and inflation for France and Spain will be released.

The main European stock markets also opened this Wednesday with a positive sign: 1.44% for Milan, 1.13% for Paris, 0.81% for Frankfurt, 0.60% for London.

At the opening of the stock market, the price of a barrel of Brent quality oil, a reference for the Old Continent, fell 0.19%, to 86.01 dollars, while Texas stood at 82.73 dollars, a 0.23% less.
