Major US stock indexes finished trading in negative territory

Major US stock indexes have moderately decreased, affected by the fall of the commodity sector and the shares of large US creditors due to the situation in Turkey.

At the same time, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, speaking in Ankara today, said that Turkey's fundamental macroeconomic indicators are strong and that his country is in economic and political siege, which, in his opinion, will continue.

The aggravation in relations between Turkey and the US began with the introduction of US sanctions against the two Turkish ministers (the Minister of Internal Affairs and the Minister of Justice), which was the result of Turkey's refusal to release the American pastor detained in Ankara. But this did not end there: at the end of last week, US President Donald Trump approved an increase in duties on aluminum and steel from Turkey to 20 and 50 percent, respectively.

Quotes of oil declined on Monday, as trade tensions and problems surrounding emerging markets worsened the prospects for demand for fuel, although US sanctions against Iran indicate a more stringent proposal in the future.

Most of the components of DOW finished trading in the red (24 out of 30). Leader of the growth were shares of Merck & Co., Inc. (MRK, + 1.10%). Outsider shares were DowDuPont Inc. (DWDP, -1.76%).

All S & P sectors recorded a decline. Most of all, the commodity sector fell (-1.3%).

At closing:

Dow 25,187.70 -125.44 -0.50%

S&P 500 2,821.93 -11.35 -0.40%

U.S. stock-index futures were little changed on Monday, as a drop in the Turkish lira that weighed on financial sector was offset by a slim recovery in technology stocks.

It is unlikely that Turkey's President Erdogan will change his views on monetary policy "in a radical manner" and this is the only way for the Turkish "lira to stabilize on a sustainable basis," say Commerzbank analysts

The central-bank measures announced Monday by Turkey won't help stem the slide in the Turkish lira and this "bodes further panic ahead," Rabobank says

The euro has been falling for the past week, but Commerzbank analysts say they "see no reason for sustainable euro weakness"

By showing concerns that individual banks in the eurozone may have excessive Turkey exposure in their portfolios, the European Central Bank instigated fears of monetary policy normalization being put aside as long as the economic and political crisis continues in Turkey. But "the hope of a normalization of ECB monetary policy had mutated into a long term bet some time ago anyway," the analysts say in a note. Moreover, "even in times of the euro zone crisis the single currency suffered only moderately." - via WSJ

In July 2018, the Italian consumer price index increased by 0.3%

In July 2018, the Italian consumer price index for the whole nation (NIC) increased by 0.3% on monthly basis and by 1.5% compared with July 2017 (up from +1.3% in the previous month), confirming the flash estimate.

The acceleration of the growth on annual basis of All items index was mainly due to prices of Regulated energy products (from -1.2% to +5.5%). The slowdown of prices of Services related to transport (from +2.9% of the previous month to +1.7%) mitigated this acceleration.

As a consequence, inflation excluding energy and unprocessed food (core inflation) was +0.7% and inflation excluding energy was +0.9% (both in deceleration respectively from +0.8% and +1.0%).
