Gold jumped 2 per cent as the weak US data heightened fears over a coronavirus-induced global downturn. “The pace is slowing down, which is providing some optimism that we are finally going to see things bottom out,” Ed Moya, senior market analyst at OANDA, said of the unemployment claims. The strong showing boosted speculation China could recover from its coronavirus lockdown more quickly than expected and support global growth in the process.

US President Donald Trump said he would be able to report in about a week or two whether China is meeting its obligations under a trade deal, as Washington weighed punitive action against Beijing over its handling of the coronavirus outbreak.
