Here is how major stock markets outside the United States ended on Monday.
Among major movers, Shire rallied after US regulators gave conditional approval to its new hyperactivity drug, while truckmaker Scania dropped after rival MAN said it might drop its unsolicited bid. "This (market) rise has taken some people by surprise. It went so far so fast so now they have to pay to catch up and will try to buy every dip that becomes available," said Philippe Gijsels, senior equity strategist at Fortis Bank.
