The coming week promises a packed schedule of corporate earnings and economic data releases across the UK, Europe, and the United States.
In the UK, investors will be watching closely as several of the country’s biggest names report third-quarter results. The spotlight will be on the major domestic banks — Barclays, Lloyds, and NatWest — offering the first insights into how lenders are navigating the current economic environment. Consumer goods giants Unilever and Reckitt Benckiser are also set to update the market, providing further clues about global spending trends.
