European Markets Edge Lower in Premarket

European stock indexes experienced a slight decline during Tuesday's premarket session as investors eagerly awaited key economic data. The focus was on the confirmation of German inflation for November, expected to be at 2.2%. Additionally, anticipation for US inflation figures, due to be released tomorrow, added an element of uncertainty to the markets.

This shift in market sentiment marked a departure from the gains witnessed on Monday, as reported by Teletrader.
