LONDON/SYDNEY: Europe's shares added to their best gains in almost a month as safety plays lost their lustre on Wednesday, with hopes of a rapid economic recovery standing firm against a resurgence of global coronavirus cases.
Trial results announced on Tuesday showed dexamethasone, used to reduce inflammation in other diseases such as arthritis, reduced death rates by around a third among the most severely ill COVID-19 patients admitted to hospital. Chinese blue chips recovered from an early dip to finish steady. That followed a robust session on Wall Street overnight. The Dow ended Tuesday up 2.04per cent, while the S&P 500 gained 1.90per cent and the Nasdaq 1.75per cent.
"But questions about the extent of lasting damage will have to wait for a number of months before being resolved." Thirty-year yields were up 2 basis points at 1.55per cent, having risen by the most in a month on Tuesday, and 10-year German Bunds led a flurry of similar rises in Europe ahead of a 5 billion euro bond sale.
The dollar was up a touch on the Japanese yen at 107.40, while the euro stood at US$1.1268 from its recent top of US$1.1422.
