Mike van Dulken, of Accendo Markets, said: “Major equity markets are hugging break-even today as a dollar pullback weighs on the UK Index and DAX via unwelcome reciprocal GBP and EUR strength and investors pause to consider the outlook from a political, economic and central bank standpoint. While equities hold up around recent highs, bonds and safe havens are performing well too.”
Accendo Markets’ Mike van Dulken said: “Another big build would add to last week’s disappointment and an uptrend since Christmas, reinforcing concerns about rising US shale production overpowering OPEC cuts.”
Mike van Dulken, at Accendo Markets, said: ‘Investors continued to plump for bonds over equities amid political uncertainty.’ He added: ‘Wall Street closed yesterday nursing minor losses, as rising concerns surrounding the implementation of Donald Trump’s pledge to pump a $1trillion fiscal stimulus in the US begin to weigh on investor sentiment.’
