BRUSSELS/FRANKFURT/PARIS (dpa-AFX) - European stocks extended declines on

to help the struggling property sector, helping ease concerns around economic
recovery.
Closer home, Eurozone CPI was finalized at 2.4 percent year-on-year in April,
unchanged from March's reading.
Earlier today, ECB Vice-President Luis de Guindos said that inflation in the
Eurozone will move near its target of 2 percent in 2025.
Elsewhere, delivering a speech on the state of the economy, U.K. chancellor
Jeremy Hunt promised further tax cuts if the Conservatives win the general

U.K.'s FTSE 100 was down 0.3 percent.
In corporate news, Swiss luxury goods maker Richemont surged 5.3 percent after

Electrolux dropped 1 percent. The consumer electronics major has reannounced its
previous recall of Frigidaire and Kenmore electric ranges following multiple
reports of fires and injuries.
British property development firm Land Securities fell 2.3 percent after annual
earnings from rental income dropped to £371 million from £393 million in 2023.
