Many executives said they did not support all Biden's policies, but said they believed he would be more predictable and better for the country. Global investors on Wednesday began reversing some Biden trades that had prompted a jump in Wall Street's main indexes on Tuesday. Bank stocks in Europe fell, with the STOXX index of European lenders down 2% while the main bourses in London , Paris and Frankfurt rose by 0.2% to 0.3% by 1130 GMT.
