Week commencing 15 November
Chris Beauchamp’s insight
The week sees UK employment and CPI figures published, the latter a crucial bit of data following the BoE’s decision not to raise rates. Canadian and Japanese CPI will maintain the global focus on inflation. Earnings from Walmart and NVIDIA are important to watch in the US, along with updates from Imperial Brands and Royal Mail in the UK.

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.
