Week commencing 27 November
Axel Rudolph's insight
This week sees the release of US new and pending home sales, consumer confidence, quarter 3 gross domestic product growth (second estimate), personal income, ISM manufacturing PMI and the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) Beige Book and preferred Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) price index. In Europe, German consumer confidence, unemployment and retail sales as well as inflation data will be key and in the Eurozone economic sentiment. Japan industrial production, retail sales, unemployment and consumer confidence will be worth monitoring as will China’s manufacturing data. On the earnings front Topps Tiles, EasyJet, Halfords and Mulberry will report in the UK and HP, Dollar Tree and Dell in the US.

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.
