A day of mixed feelings in the financial markets with investors torn between the positive news that cases and fatalities are starting to come under control in the coronavirus main epicentres on one hand, and disappointing earnings and another bad day for oil on the other. It looks as though the glass half-full view is just about prevailing, with risk-related currencies edging ahead.
