(RTTNews) - European shares were moving lower on Tuesday after two days of gains. A slew of mixed regional data and Middle East concerns weighed on sentiment, heading into Thursday's ECB meeting.
Germany's wholesale prices fell at the steepest pace in five months in September, while investor confidence in the country improved for the first time in four months, separate data revealed.
France's consumer price inflation slowed slightly more than initially estimated in September to the lowest level in three-and-a-half years due to cheaper energy costs, statistical office INSEE reported.
Elsewhere, data showed U.K. wage growth softened to the lowest in more than two years in the three months to August, adding support to expectations that the central bank will cut interest rates further at the next meeting.

The German DAX was marginally higher, France's CAC 40 dipped 0.8 percent and the U.K.'s FTSE 100 was down 0.4 percent.

Energy giant BP Plc slumped 4.2 percent and peer Shell fell nearly 3 percent as oil prices slid as much as $3 to a near two-week low on the back of a weaker demand forecast from IEA and after reports that Israel's planned retaliatory attack on Iran won't target nuclear or oil facilities.
Office-rental company Workspace Group dropped about 1 percent after like-for-like occupancy fell due to an unusually high number of customers vacating in the second quarter.
