European stocks turned lower after a positive start on Wednesday, with the STOXX 50 falling 0.3% and the STOXX 600 slipping 0.2%, as investors avoided taking large positions while assessing renewed tensions in the Middle East after the US and Iran exchanged strikes and awaiting the ECB’s monetary policy decision on Thursday. Meanwhile, the ECB is widely expected to raise interest rates by 25bps this month, with investors closely watching policymakers’ guidance on the future path of monetary policy. In the US, attention is also focused on the CPI report due later in the day. HSBC Holdings dropped 2.2% as UK lenders extended losses from the previous session after a JP Morgan note highlighted a potentially greater impact from new Chinese regulations. SAP and Siemens Energy both fell 1.7%, while Thyssenkrupp lost 3.5%. On the upside, STMicroelectronics gained 1.2% after BofA Global Research upgraded the chipmaker to “buy” from “neutral”, while Infineon advanced 0.6%.
