ASML jumps after Reuters report US exempts allies from curbs
** Shares in ASML ASML.AS rise around 7% after Reuters reported that new US exports rules for semiconductor equipment with China will not affect certain allies, including the Netherlands
** Peers ASMI ASMI.AS and BESI BESI.AS are up 5% and 4%, respectively, while Europe's technology index .SX8P rises 3.3%
** ING analyst Marc Hesselink says the news reverses some of the losses caused by a wider sell-down across the semiconductor sector
** "You take away a risk, and obviously that should be taken positive," he says, adding ASML's shares are recovering some of the 20% it lost in the last two weeks
