Brenntag's shares dropped sharply on Tuesday after the German chemicals distributor lowered its annual earnings forecast and missed first-quarter estimates due to price pressures and lower-than-expected demand in some areas. Brenntag said that higher volumes were not making up for lower prices, without giving exact figures. "Finding the right price points at this moment is a little bit tricky as we have not been fully meeting the expectations in Q1," said CEO Christian Kohlpaintner in an analyst call.
European shares were subdued on Tuesday as investors braced for a key U.S. inflation data and Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's remarks due later in the day, while Delivery Hero jumped on the sale of its Taiwan foodpanda business to Uber. After strong gains last week, investors are at bay for two days now ahead of the U.S. producer prices inflation data and Powell's remarks, one day prior to the market-moving consumer prices inflation data, for clues on the Fed's interest rate-cut outlook.
