Commenting on moves in global markets after the first round of the French election, Trevor Greetham, Head of Multi Asset at Royal London Asset Management, said: |
“The main worry for investors and traders watching the French election was that voters would be presented with a choice between anti-EU candidates on the left and right in the second round. With roughly 55% backing pro-EU candidates over the weekend and the polls clearly pointing to a Macron victory in the run off with Le Pen, the euro rallied strongly. “In stocks and bonds, markets were also taking the good news early as French bond yields dropped and stock markets rallied across the board. “However, it’s worth noting that the French election is likely to be the first of several risks to test markets as thin summer trading comes into view. Signs of a temporary peaking out in global growth, the impact of tightening moves in China and, first up, a potential government shutdown in the US at the end of this week, mean investors can’t pop the champagne corks just yet.” |
