Friday 30th October 2020Markets turned around again, with equities rising sharply.

Phil Dobbie asks NAB’s Gavin Friend how he reads the market right now, and what are his thoughts on the ECB meeting which did little, but promised a lot more next time. Meanwhile virus numbers rise, there are more restraints on the economy in France and Germany – and could the UK be forced to go further next week too? Next week will be quite a week. Hosted on Acast.
