European equities made a small gain as energy shares climbed amid persistent Middle East tensions that kept oil prices elevated. Market participants are poised for a clutch of economic releases later this week, including euro zone employment, euro zone GDP and U.S. consumer price data, for guidance on inflation and interest rate direction.
European equities traded essentially flat as a renewed rise in crude prices and a breakdown in Middle East mediation weighed on risk appetite.

RADCOM (RDCM) cut 2026 revenue guidance to a more conservative 8-12% growth, which has the stock trading well below recent highs and into oversold territory.
