CORRECTED - European Factors -- Shares seen mixed
(Corrects to show DAX and CAC seen up not down)
PARIS, May 12 (Reuters) - European equities were seen mixed on Monday, after the previous session's heavy loss, as investors brace for UK inflation figures and an update from HSBC (HSBA.L: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz).
Financial bookmakers, or spread betters, in London expected Britain's FTSE 100 .FTSE index to open between 2 and 6 points lower, the German DAX .GDAXI up 6 to 7 points, and the French CAC 40 .FCHI 5 to 12 points up.
"European equity markets look set to start the new week flat to marginally higher after a relatively uneventful end to the week on Wall Street, however scope for early volatility in London trade shouldn't be ruled out with the release of the UK PPI data for April scheduled this morning," Matt Buckland, trader at CMC Markets, wrote in a note.
UK price producer index, a key inflation measure, is expected at 0830 GMT.
The FTSEurofirst 300 index fell 1.3 percent on Friday, to close at 1,342.68 points, hit by downbeat earnings from financial services firms and record high oil prices.
