Index Focus – 12 Nov - 12 November 2014

Global markets are being held lower this morning as the violence in Ukraine escalates with the ceasefire seemingly collapsing. Fighting has returned to levels that preceded the ceasefire, which could signal further sanctions against the Russians.  US markets closed relatively flat on light volumes due to Veterans Day Holiday, whilst the European peers pushed higher, making further headway into the loses of last month. For the UK’s UK 100 , corporate earnings are still dominating proceedings and providing direction. Macro data in the form of unemployment as well as the BOE’s inflation report due for release this morning could add some volatility to the UK 100 .
