Meanwhile, European stocks have seen weekly declines due to diminishing expectations for Central Bank interest rate cuts. Vinfast, the Vietnamese electric car maker, reported lower-than-expected sales, attributing the shortfall to various factors including slow EV adoption and economic uncertainties.
