UPDATE 1-German investor morale slumps as economic outlook darkens

The mood among German investors plummeted far more than expected in August, a survey showed on Tuesday, and the ZEW institute blamed trade disputes and higher chances of a no-deal Brexit for a worsening outlook in Europe's biggest economy. ZEW said its monthly survey showed economic sentiment among investors fell to -44.1 from -24.5 in July, its lowest level since December 2011. Germany's DAX hit a day's low after ZEW published the survey.
