European Shares Inch Higher In Cautious Trade

The upside, however, remained limited after a top Federal Reserve official warned against bets of the U.S. central bank turning too dovish.

The German DAX gained 0.3 percent, while France's CAC 40 index and the U.K.'s FTSE 100 both added around 0.4 percent.

Rheinmetall AG, a German automotive and arms maker, jumped 2.9 percent.

The company announced its agreement with Spain's MaxamCorp. Holding S.L. to acquire Expal Systems S.A, a Madrid-based ammunition maker.

Orange, a French telecom major, rose 1 percent. The company said that its cyber-security arm, Orange Cyberdefense, has acquired SCRT and Telsys, two Swiss sister firms with expertise in cyber-security and related services for an undisclosed amount.

Miners Antofagasta and Glencore rose 1-2 percent as London copper prices hovered near a five-month high on China demand hopes.

John Wood Group, an engineering and consulting firm, plunged 5 percent after saying it has reached a settlement agreement with Enterprise Products Operating LLC on legacy lawsuit.

Indivior gained nearly 1 percent after it inked a deal to acquire Opiant for $20 per share or around $145 million in cash.
