  • Global financial markets were mixed in a session dominated by political news. On the one hand, rumors that China and the US will try to ease trade tensions in the next G20 summit led to the first increase in 7 days in the S&P 500. On the other hand, the resignation of two UK ministers after Prime Minister Theresa May had presented the Brexit Withdrawal agreement to its cabinet caused the British pound to depreciate against most international currencies.
  • Elsewhere, European stock indices performed poorly and losses were broad-based, while EM assets were mixed (MSCI Emerging Asia advanced 1.6% and MSCI Latin America remained unchanged).
  • In fixed-income markets, yields on US Treasuries and German Bunds (considered as safe assets) edged down while peripheral risk premiums increased.
  • Today, investors will focus on the euro area October's final inflation figures (Oct. Flash: 2.2%, Sept. 2.1%).
