European shares ended the week marginally lower. The STOXX 600 was flat at 554.89. Technology stocks paused after rallying earlier, with BE Semiconductor and ASML down 0.9%. Central bank decisions, including a US Federal Reserve rate cut and a 25-bp rate cut from Norway, failed to sustain gains. Elevated sovereign debt levels and US tariffs weighed on stocks.
