Join us for the next in our series of calls aimed at helping dealing desks navigate an ever more complex macro picture. Nine of the largest US companies account for just shy of 30% of the S&P 500’s market capitalisation and these companies all report their Q3 results in a two week period from 13 to 27 October. They are sure to have a significant bearing on European sectors and markets.

From Amazon to Visa, Apple to P&G we will present on our key expectations for these market moving names as well as the all- important read across to key peers in Europe.

Until the end of 2017, dark liquidity could be found in either MTFs or Broker Crossing Networks. MTFs remain part of the execution landscape today, but now they exist alongside a variety of other venues and order types; all providing liquidity that, even if not strictly dark, certainly matches the profile of dark liquidity as most understand it. Systematic Internalisers, Periodic Auctions, Hidden LIS Orders and Conditional Orders are still seeing growth today and new sources of liquidity continue to be launched.
