The German share price index DAX graph is pictured at the stock exchange in Frankfurt, Germany, August 29, 2023. Investors are also focusing on English football club Manchester United (MANU.N), whose shares fell 18% on Tuesday in their steepest one-day decline. Brent crude is above $90 a barrel after Saudi Arabia and Russia extended their voluntary supply cuts to the end of the year. Weakness in demand will be the focus of data today as Germany releases July manufacturing data and the euro zone shows us what retailers were doing in July. Not much, going by the share price of French luxury group LVMH (LVMH.PA), which was just dethroned from pole position in Europe's most-valuable list.
