Comment: European markets received a weak handover from Wall Street, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 falling over 1%, after the minutes of the July Federal Reserve meeting showed that most policymakers believe it could be appropriate for the central bank to start reducing bond purchases this year.
