European
stocks excluding London's FTSE 100 index dropped due to the escalation of the
situation in Ukraine. Even the better-than-expected U.S. labour market data
could not change anything. The U.S. inflation rate dropped to 6.3% in April
from 6.7% in March. It is the lowest level in more than 5 years. Analysts forecasted
the decrease to 6.6%. 288,000 new nonfarm jobs were created in April, the
biggest growth in one month since the start of 2012. March’s figure was revised
up to 203,000 from 192,000. The projected figure was an increase of 211,000.
London's
FTSE 100 index was supported by the better-than-expected quarter earnings of Royal
Bank of Scotland Group Plc.
Earlier in
the trading session, market participants were disappointed by Spain’s
manufacturing purchasing managers' index (PMI). The index dropped to 52.7 in
April from 52.8 in March. Analysts expected an increase to 53.4. But Eurozone’s
PMI was higher. The index climbed to 53.4 in April from 53.0 in March
(forecast: 53.3). Eurozone’s unemployment decreased slightly in March. The
unemployment rate dropped to 11.8% from 11.9% in February (forecast: 11.9%).
Royal Bank
of Scotland Group Plc shares increased 8.2% after announcing the
better-than-expected quarter earnings. Company’ net income tripled in the first
quarter of the year.
InterContinental
Hotels Group Plc was higher 8.2% after announcing the growth of 6% in the first
