European stocks retreated from record highs as concerns over the independence of the Federal Reserve sapped investor confidence. The Stoxx Europe 600 Index was down 0.2% at 10:22 a.m. in Paris. Mining shares were the biggest outperformers as gold and silver hit records after the US Justice Department threatened the Federal Reserve with a criminal indictment. The drop is a damper for the benchmark that has had a strong start to January so far, driven by tech and mining gains. Geopolitical worries also continue to linger, following the US attack on Venezuela and protests in Iran. European investors have been maintaining their risk-on stance, heading into this week’s US inflation data and the start of earnings season.

Among individual stocks, Abivax SA shares surged as much as 31% as speculation mounted over a possible takeover of the French biotech. Barclays Plc fell 3.6% after President Donald Trump said that credit-card lenders would be “in violation of the law” if they don’t heed his call to cap interest rates at 10% for one year. Heineken NV dropped 2.4%, with its Chief Executive Officer Dolf van den Brink set to step down months after the company warned on profit over falling beer sales.
