  • S&P Dow Jones Indices Europe Dashboard

    Date 30/11/2018

    • Roiled by Brexit tensions, global trade uncertainty, and sharp declines in commodity prices, European equities slipped in November.  The S&P Europe 350® fell 0.8% on the month and is now down 4.6% on the year. 
    • The S&P United Kingdom declined 1.4% as markets anxiously awaited the outcome of Brexit negotiations.  Market uncertainty drove Pound price volatility to its highest levels since the Brexit referendum.  Though the EU and Prime Minister Theresa May have struck a tentative deal for the U.K's exit from the EU, it will still need to pass Parliamentary muster. 
    • European sector results were mixed.  A sharp decline in oil prices weighed down the Energy sector, leading to a 6% decline on the month.  Broadly, commodity baskets declined, leading to a 6% decline for the Materials sector as well. It was not all doom and gloom, however; the Communication Services sector was the shining star, gaining 7.2%.

  • SIX Welcomes Contingency Measure Of Swiss Federal Council

    Date 30/11/2018

    Today, the Swiss Federal Council has adopted an ordinance that will come into effect on the same day. This ordinance will introduce a new "recognition regime" for foreign trading venues which trade Swiss shares. The ordinance was adopted due to the fact that the EU Commission has not yet decided to extend the equivalence recognition of Swiss legal and supervisory framework for trading venues with that of the EU. SIX welcomes the contingency measure of the Swiss Federal Council, a measure to protect the functioning of the Swiss stock exchange infrastructure, as it ensures that EU market participants continue to have access to the Swiss domestic market and are able to trade Swiss equities there.
