European shares held steady after a positive start to the week in Asia, while the banking sector added to Friday's sharp rally ahead of quarterly results from a number of big US lenders.[STOCKHOLM] European shares held steady after a positive start to the week in Asia, while the banking sector added to Friday's sharp rally ahead of quarterly results from a number of big US lenders.
The Stoxx Europe 600 Index was little changed in early trade, with the Stoxx bank index up 0.8 per cent. The media sector was also among the strongest, with Publicis Groupe SA up 2 percent after saying it will pay US$4.4 billion in cash to purchase Alliance Data Systems Corp's marketing unit Epsilon.
