(Bloomberg) —Stocks rose slightly Monday as metals climbed on better-than-expected Chinese growth. The pound fell as Brexit negotiations resumed.

The S&P 500 Index added to its gains after reaching a record on Friday. The Stoxx Europe 600 Index swung between gains to losses after a report showed stagnating consumer prices in the euro area. Iron ore, zinc and copper benefited from figures showing China’s economy expanded faster than anticipated in the second quarter. The dollar steadied after a five-day losing streak. Treasury yields slipped.

With U.S. equity markets continuing to flirt with new highs, investor appetite for risk remains robust. Citigroup Inc.’s Global Risk Aversion Macro Index, which measures tolerance across a series of asset classes, is at a three-year low and in line with levels seen before the 2008 financial crisis.

The strong growth statistics for the world’s second biggest economy followed U.S. inflation data last week that undermined the case for tighter monetary policy and pushed stocks to record levels. European data was largely in line with expectations, leaving investors to weigh three days of gains against the uncertainty of a European Central Bank meeting this week and the ramping up of the earnings season.

On the radar this week:

The ECB meets Thursday. Bloomberg Intelligence expects no change then, and no rate hike before 2019. Reuters cited unidentified officials as saying the bank is keen to keep asset purchases open-ended.  The Bank of Japan is forecast to stand pat at its meeting Thursday. Round two of Brexit talks get underway in Brussels. Australia’s central bank on Tuesday releases minutes of its July 4 gathering. Government data on the labor market is due Thursday. Here are the main moves in markets:
