DAX, CAC 40, IBEX, and Stoxx 50 in focus ahead of the ECB interest rate decision

European stock index futures were mixed on June 11 as markets balanced Middle East tensions and their potential impact on energy prices against anticipation of the ECB interest rate decision. The setup points to broader risk-off caution rather than a clear directional move, with geopolitics and monetary policy both in focus. No specific magnitude was given, but the macro backdrop is sufficient to keep European futures volatile.
