European shares snap losing streak on solid earnings, macro data

By Danilo Masoni and Helen Reid MILAN/LONDON (Reuters) - European shares snapped a three-day losing streak on Wednesday, led higher by miners and industrial stocks following solid corporate results and strong data from China and Europe. "Equity markets across the EU are stronger today on the back of a round of better than expected earnings, as well as rather better than anticipated China manufacturing data," said Stephane Ekolo, chief European strategist at Market Securities in London.
