Market sentiment news and analysis:
- Trader confidence is growing, boosting demand for riskier assets at the expense of those seen as safe havens.

Trader confidence rising
Despite continuing worries about the US-China trade war, UK politics and supply constraints in the oil market, traders seem reasonably confident at present, moving their money into riskier assets. The turmoil in the UK over Brexit has failed to undermine the British Pound and there is also some optimism about the upcoming US earnings season.
In this webinar, I looked at the impact of these factor so far on the financial markets and at how they are likely to move in the days ahead.
