European shares were little changed on Monday after ending the previous week with their strongest performance since mid-May, as investors shifted their attention to fresh corporate dealmaking, with a proposed takeover of British airline easyJet providing the biggest boost to market sentiment.
According to Reuters, the pan-European STOXX 600 index was broadly flat at 652.84 points as of 0710 GMT, following a strong weekly rally driven by easing geopolitical concerns and improving investor confidence.
