Week commencing 13 November
Chris Beauchamp's insight
US and UK consumer price index (CPI) reports dominate the week, as investors wait to hear the latest news on the key indicator of the past year. Other UK data such as employment figures and retail sales will drive activity in sterling. US retailers such as WalMart update the market with earnings, while in the UK BAE Systems and Burberry are among the major companies reporting results.

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.
