The Week Ahead

Week commencing 11 October
Chris Beauchamp’s insight
The week begins quietly with a US market holiday, but it rapidly heats up with US earnings season upon us once more. US banks and a host of UK trading statements dominate the week. Along with this, we have UK employment data, Chinese and US inflation data and the latest set of Fed minutes.

Dividends are applied after the close of the previous day’s session for each market. So, for example, the FTSE 100 goes ex-dividend on a Thursday, but the adjustment is applied at the close of the previous day, e.g. Wednesday. The table below shows the days in which the adjustment is applied, not the ex-dividend days.
