European stocks gained and the dollar fell after Federal Reserve meeting minutes showed support for more moderate interest-rate increases.

The Stoxx Europe 600 Index extended its recent rally as the real estate sector outperformed, boosted by the prospects of slower rate hikes and analyst upgrades. Dr. Martens Plc shares plunged the most on record after the bootmaker's sales and earnings missed expectations.

A gauge of dollar strength fell further Thursday, taking declines into a third day. There is no trading in Treasuries due to the U.S. holiday. Meanwhile, Bank of America Corp. said its private clients are flocking to bonds and out of stocks amid fears of a looming recession. Bond funds attracted inflows for a 39th straight week, strategists led by Michael Hartnett wrote in a note. The strategists favor holding bonds in the first half of 2023, with stocks becoming more attractive in the last six months of next year.
