Stock Market LIVE Updates: European stocks regain poise as bond selloff eases



European shares regained some poise on Thursday after a three-day selloff on concerns about elevated interest rates that had pushed U.S. and European government bond yields to multi-year highs.

The continent-wide STOXX 600 index rose 0.3% by 0720 GMT, having closed at a fresh six-month low on Wednesday.

Offering relief to battered stocks, longer-dated U.S. Treasury yields eased from 16-year highs after data on Wednesday showed that U.S. jobs growth was below economists' expectations in September.
