STOXX AT FIVE WEEK LOW
The STOXX 600 .STOXX dropped to a five-week low after the first hour or so of trading, with bad earnings news outweighing the good, while investors processed a deluge of German economic data, including an unexpected rise in GDP.
The biggest faller is Italian spirit maker Campari CPRI.MI down 14%, at its lowest in over 4 years after missing Q3 forecasts with an 18.2% drop in operating profit.
That's having a read-across for Pernod Ricard, PERP.PA and other big fallers include Amundi AMUN.PA and GSK. GSK.L
There was better news from ASM International ASMI.AS, up 4.5% after raising forecasts.
As for Germany, investors were processing a combination of an above-expectations 0.2% rise in third-quarter GDP, a tick up in inflation in major states and a larger-than-expected rise in unemployment.
German 10-year yields retraced an early fall to be last flat on the day. GVD/EUR
