  • Stock markets edged upwards Tuesday as investors absorbed the latest coronavirus vaccine news after President Donald Trump returned to the White House following treatment for the virus. Political concerns persisted ahead of the presidential election on November 3 however. The dollar rose against the pound but declined against the yen, while oil prices shot higher owing to strikes on Norwegian offshore platforms and a hurricane heading towards US installations. In midday exchanges, the Dow Jones index was essentially unchanged in New York. European and Swiss regulators said they had begun to assess candidate vaccines for the coronavirus, suggesting that progress was being made towards managing Covid-19, which has killed more than 1.04 million people worldwide. On Monday, global equities had rebounded on reports of Trump's improving health and as US lawmakers appeared to edge towards agreeing on a new stimulus package. The election still weighed on investor's minds, however. "This is still going to be a controversial, drawn-out election with the potential added uncertainty of a challenge to the result," OANDA analyst Craig Erlam remarked. Markets were unclear over the chances of a new US stimulus package that would help counteract fallout from the pandemic in the world's biggest economy, dealers said. Stimulus talks have revived with a series of mostly phone meetings between Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Democrat House leader Nancy Pelosi. The two sides have been talking for weeks and sending ambiguous signals on the likelihood of a deal, however. "As far as traders are concerned, talking is preferable to being in a stand-off and not engaging with each other," noted David Madden, analyst at CMC Markets UK.
