European stock movers in focus:

----------

Porsche Automobil Holding SE, down 2.6% at EUR27.61, 12-month range EUR26.84-EUR41.52. The investment holding company falls after Volkswagen AG, in which Porsche SE is the largest shareholder, is removed from the Euro Stoxx 50 index for the first time in 15 years. Volkswagen leaves the eurozone blue-chip benchmark following a prolonged decline in its shares, which have fallen more than three-quarters from their 2021 highs to around a 16-year low. Porsche SE holds 53.3% of Volkswagen's ordinary shares and 31.9% of its subscribed capital.

----------

Metlen Energy & Metals PLC, up 4.9% at EUR46.37, 12-month range EUR30.50-EUR55.00. The energy and metals group tracks gains across London-listed mining stocks as firmer precious metals prices and easing energy costs support the sector. Brent crude falls below USD102 a barrel following a multi-day decline, easing concerns over fuel and operating costs for energy-intensive miners. Separately, Metlen appoints Yannis Masvoulas as investor relations senior director, based in London and reporting to Chief Financial Officer Fotini Ioannou. Masvoulas joins from Morgan Stanley, where he was an executive director in equity research covering the metals and mining sector.

----------

Barratt Redrow PLC, down 1.6% at 300.75, 12-month range 235.40p-410.29. Broker Peel Hunt cuts the housebuilder to 'hold' from 'add' with a 300p price target, taking a more cautious view on valuation following the shares' recent run-up and amid continued macroeconomic uncertainty around UK interest rates and mortgage affordability. Barratt Redrow shares remain down 19% over the past 12 months and 56% over the past five years, but have risen 12% over the past 6 months.

----------

Kering SA, down 2.8% at EUR226.53, 12-month range EUR225.10-EUR354.20. The luxury goods group falls as concerns over consumer spending and continued weakness in China weigh on the sector. Deutsche Bank analyst Adam Cochrane says most consumer stocks underperformed last week amid worries that higher inflation will hit spending, while volatility was driven by energy prices, bond yields and artificial intelligence headlines. Within luxury, Deutsche Bank says pre-close calls and company commentary point to negative momentum in China during the third quarter. Cochrane notes that investors are now weighing whether the worsening outlook has already been reflected in luxury-sector valuations.

----------

Kuehne & Nagel International AG, up 6.7% at CHF227.80, 12-month range CHF147.40-CHF228.60. The logistics company enters a long-term strategic collaboration with Amazon.com Inc aimed at supporting future business opportunities and strengthening services for Amazon and its affiliates. Kuehne & Nagel says the "comprehensive" partnership is designed to improve supply chain resilience, scalability and operational efficiency, while supporting the growth of cloud infrastructure. The collaboration includes Amazon Web Services and covers the infrastructure lifecycle from construction and equipment deployment through to maintenance, upgrades and expansion projects. The agreement is supported by a call option on existing Kuehne & Nagel shares, which can settle in cash or, at Amazon's election, in shares, with vesting linked to commercial milestones and services over up to seven years.
