MILAN, March 30 (Reuters) - Real estate stocks were the
top performers in Europe on Thursday as immediate concerns over
prospects for the highly leveraged sector eased after a heavy
drop in March that dragged it close to 10-year lows hit last
year.
The STOXX Europe Real Estate .SX86P rose 2.8% by 0743 GMT,
leading sectoral gainers in the region, while the broader STOXX
600 .STOXX equity benchmark index was up 0.9%.
Shares in Sweden's Castellum CAST.ST , Wallenstam
WALLb.ST and in Germany's Aroundtown AT1.DE and Vonovia
VNAn.DE led real estate gainers, up more than 4%.
