As explained in the analyst, Michael James, on Wall Street, the performance of the cru “holds everything that is related with energy and raw materials, stimulating the market as a whole, at the same time.”

Still according to him, the Stock market reacted favorably to the recent events of the american presidential race, after the end of a difficult week for the republican candidate, Donald Trump. The second debate with democrat Hillary Clinton was on this Sunday (9).
