European stocks are set to dip just below the flatline during Thursday's open, as investors keep abreast of geopolitical news taking place across the globe.

Markets remain cautious on Thursday, as investors around the world watch closely for any further developments concerning the tit-for-tat trade dispute between China and the U.S. On Wednesday, U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer stated in front of the House Ways and Means committee that he foresaw long-term hurdles ahead.

The testimony comes just days after President Donald Trump announced that he'd push the deadline of early March back, which would have instigated fresh trade tariffs on China. On the first day of the summit, Trump stated that he was happy that there was no evidence that the Asian country had conducted any tests concerning nuclear or ballistic missiles in over a year.

Purchase promises not enough to solve U.S.'s China trade issues: LighthizerU.S. issues with China are 'too serious' to be resolved with promises ... Then no purchases... China just expanded agricultural lands by 5.33 million hectares in the interest of national food security after listening to our so called nationalist. US farmers may never recover from the Trump GOP agenda. China is in a NO-LOSE situation. They export us crap, which we can easily make here, better. Any tariffs on their cheap goods won't bring us much. If we export to China, it's high-end Tech, for which they make huge tariffs to feed their military conquests.
