    Commonwealth Bank cut Domino’s Pizza to “underweight” from “neutral” and lowered its price target to $23.30 a share from $25.60.

    Currencies

    Currencies of oil-producing nations tumbled, with the Norwegian krone reaching a five-year low against the dollar, after OPEC members decided to keep its output target unchanged.
    The currency of Western Europe’s largest crude producer weakened at least 0.6 per cent versus all of its 16 major peers as Brent declined to the lowest price since 2010. The Canadian dollar fell for the first time in three days and the Russian ruble tumbled.

If it closes below that level, then there's higher risk of a crash to $US6000," said Gianclaudio Torlizzi, partner at consultancy T-Commodity in Milan.

    More people were unemployed in France in October than ever before, data showed on Thursday, highlighting continued weak activity in the euro zone’s second-largest economy. The Labour Ministry said the jobless total in mainland France rose by 28,400 to 3,460,900.
    Preliminary figures from Germany's Statistics Office on Thursday showed inflation harmonised to compare with other European countries dropped to 0.5 per cent from 0.7 per cent in October, undershooting a consensus forecast of 0.6 per cent.
