MODERATE FALLS IN EUROPE

After showing little reaction to the new rejection by the European Commission to the budgets of Italy, the European stock exchanges continued today demonstrating that they prefer to stay relatively on the margin, with days of increases, days of falls and a general weakness that we hope will be overcome by the end of the year and move towards the longed for Christmas rally.

At the moment, continuing with its particular rate, after rising in the last session, the indices opted this Thursday for the falls (Cac: -0.7%, Dax: -0.9%, Ftse 100: -1.1% ). However, this Thursday there is still talk of Brussels refusal to accept Italy's budgets, as well as the imposed penalty of 3,5bn for not altering them when warned.

In the midst of all this, it seems that progress is being made towards an agreement for the departure of the United Kingdom from the European Union (EU). Nevertheless there are still unresolved issues such as Gibraltar, which has become the last obstacle to negotiation. The agreement will probably be signed this Sunday and will have to be subsequently endorsed by a British parliament in which May's conservatives do not have a majority.

Experts say the focus will be on Sunday's European summit in Brussels and the continuing threat of a leadership contest in the UK, as well as the response of Italian politicians to the EC's decision to prepare a sanctioning procedure on the country.

It should also be remembered that this day is atypical because Wall Street remains closed due to the 'Thanksgiving' celebrations and tomorrow will only open during half a session. This Friday is'Black Friday' and the sales figures that will be given that day will be followed closely by analyst to test the strength of trade and the economy. The United States closed last session with moderate increases and in Asia the positive tone has also been imposed this morning.
