European stocks lower amid US-China trade talk uncertainty; Metro Bank down 27%

Trading was expected to be cautious in Europe Wednesday amid uncertainty over trade talks between the world's biggest economies, the U.S. and China, after reports emerged that the White House cancelled a trade planning meeting with Beijing. Elsewhere, officials from the Chinese finance ministry said Wednesday that Beijing will boost fiscal expenditure in 2019 to bolster the country's economy, Reuters reported.
