- Accompanied by a worsening environment for international trade and underwhelming economic data releases, European equities stumbled in August. The S&P Europe 350® fell this month.
- The S&P United Kingdom dropped after sterling rose sharply against the euro over the last few sessions. E.U. chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier’s comments triggered sterling’s response.
- Italian equities and bonds had a poor month. But it was better news for Information Technology, Quality and Dividend Aristocrats®; all three finished August in the black.
