European stock markets finished higher. The positive sentiment was generated by earnings-inspired news from auto maker DaimlerChrysler and tire maker Michelin, which helped offset nervousness around the Fed Reserve’s decision on interest rates. The German DAX 30 advanced 0.28%, the French CAC 40 added 0.33%, and London FTSE 100 advanced 0.52%.

December light, crude oil rose 10 cents to $59.45 a barrel in after-hours electronic trading on the NYME at 10:44 a.m. in London. Brent crude for December settlement advanced 17 cents to $60.03 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange in London.

Gold traded in London at $581.60 bid per troy ounce, up from $581.00 late Tuesday.
