European trading is set to be dominated today by the release of final PMI readings for the Eurozone and the UK.

PMIs (Purchasing Managers' Index) measure business activity in the manufacturing, services, and construction sectors. They provide a timely insight into the health of the economy in these sectors.

The data will provide insight into the health of Europe's economy as it recovers from multiple headwinds: the pandemic, rising energy prices, supply chain disruptions, and geopolitical tensions.

Expectations are for continued expansion in all three sectors.

Analysts will be watching for any signs of a slowdown in growth or a rise in inflationary pressures.

Other factors to watch during European trading today include:

• Rising energy prices.
• Geopolitical tensions.
• Corporate earnings announcements.
• Any further developments related to the war in Ukraine.

Overall, the release of the PMI data is likely to be the main driver of market sentiment in European trading today.

Traders should be aware of the potential for volatility and position themselves accordingly.
