Fearing Voter Backlash Over Immigration, Europe’s Politicians Tighten Rules
European leaders are tightening asylum rules and seeking to restrict migration under political pressure from opponents who charge that Europe’s mainstream parties have lost control of the numbers of people who are coming into the bloc. European Union member states and lawmakers agreed on new asylum rules Wednesday after years of failing to rework a system that collapsed during the migration crisis of 2015. Back then, over one million people came to the bloc, swelling support for far-right parties.

European shares rise as UK, German inflation data bolster rate cut bets
European shares gained on Wednesday on rising bets of interest rate cuts following softer inflation data from the UK and Germany, while a rise in commodity prices lifted resource stocks. The pan-European STOXX 600 was up 0.3% by 0818 GMT, with energy and telecom sectors leading gains. Data showed German producer prices fell more than expected in November, while British inflation dropped way more than expected last month, with the headline rate falling to its September 2021 lows, strengthening the case for rate cuts. The German DAX was up 0.2%, while the UK's FTSE 100 jumped 1.3%. Energy shares rose 1.1%, while basic resources stocks gained 0.4% on higher prices of most commodities. Telefonica jumped 6.3% as the Spanish government is set to acquire around 10% stake in the telecoms giant. The broader sector was up 1%. Deutsche Post lost 1.3% after U.S.

IT stocks rally looks pre-mature after Accenture's underwhelming guidance. Should you sell?
IT stocks in the last few days following the Fed's dovish tilt could turn out to be premature, say analysts after going through the earnings of Accenture. The key peer of Indian IT services companies reported Q1 revenue growth in line with its guidance range, but Managed Services growth moderated to a 14-quarter low. Accenture reiterated its headline FY24 revenue growth guidance of 2-5% YoYcc but increased the inorganic contribution to more than 2% vs 2% earlier, which implies that FY24 organic growth guidance has been trimmed slightly. Management indicated no change in the demand environment – persistent weakness in BFS, CMT, and discretionary spends. A likely weak discretionary demand environment is been seen as negative for Infosys, while incremental weakness in the UK could have negative implications for TCS.
