SOCIETE GENERALE: These 5 issues will define European stocks going forward
The European Central Bank on Thursday was a disappointment for the markets, as ECB President Mario Draghi's press conference came and went without any explicit promises of an extension of its quantitative easing program.

In a note circulated to clients on Thursday evening, French bank Societe Generale shared its five biggest calls for the European equity markets going forward, illustrating what we should be looking out for in the coming months. Among the things we should be watching, consumer spending, fiscal stimulus, and Brexit feature highly.
