Did Trump's Hopeful Tweet Impact Markets?

Trade concerns have weighed on stocks in recent months in the midst of the escalating trade war between the US and China. However, stocks made a move higher in the US after President Trump said last Friday that he was hopeful that America and China could strike a deal on trade.

Would this have an impact on markets this week?

We speak to Kingsley about this.

We also discuss the US dollar, sterling and oil. 

Presented by: Melisa Idris, Joyce Goh, Khoo Hsu Chuang
