What's on this page

Market sentiment news and analysis:

  • Traders are opting for riskier assets and shunning safe havens amid generally quiet holiday business.
  • Optimism remains widespread ahead of this week’s decisions on interest rates by the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England.

Our trading forecasts for Q3 have been published; you can find them here.
