Moving Markets

Two of this week’s biggest stories collided when US President Donald Trump addressed the World Economic Forum, where he made some big demands. US stock markets rose in late trading yesterday and are on track to end the week higher. European stock markets are also building on the positive momentum seen earlier in the week. Meanwhile in Asia, the Bank of Japan’s decision to raise interest rates has caused some market moves. Joining us to break down the latest in FX and metals is Tim Gagie, Head of FX & PM Solutions in Geneva, and we are also joined by Richard Tang, Head of Research Hong Kong, for a thorough update on Asian markets.
