Week commencing 7 November
Chris Beauchamp's insight
It is a quieter week this week, after the action-packed weeks that marked the end of October and the beginning of November. The monthly US consumer price index (CPI) figure provides the key moment, along with the results of the US midterm elections. Corporate data in the UK sees housebuilders like Persimmon provide updates, while in the US Disney reports earnings.

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.
