About this episode
Bouncing back…Wall Street closes a turbulent day sharply higher, as the major indices roar back from last week’s sell-off. The Dow posts its biggest point gain ever, fuelled by a rally in Apple shares. Chinese stocks mostly follow suit, but the Nikkei fails to build on the rally. The ECB is the latest central bank to pledge support to mitigate the economic impact of Coronavirus, saying it is ready to adjust all instruments. The RBA becomes the first to act, cutting rates by 25 basis points to a record low and G7 finance ministers are set to hold an emergency call to discuss the crisis. We also preview the Super Tuesday showdown in the U.S. where one third of delegates are up for grabs. Joe Biden’s campaign is gaining momentum against frontrunner Bernie Sanders following endorsements from several more former Democrat rivals.
