The world’s market on stocks got together on Monday with the hopes that a coronavirus vaccine would boost their ranks. Yet, most of the stocks still exercised some caution as a board meeting of all the central banks was supposed to take place the same week. The slight glimmer of hope has been raised after AstraZeneca restarted its phase-3 trial. 

The Brexit and its Negative Impact on Coronavirus Vaccine testing

Sterling has been hit hard by the Brexit turmoil that has recurred, but it is still on pretty firm ground as the Prime Minister of the UK, Boris Johnson has decided to break international law. He has planned to do so by violating the divorce treaty of Brexit- which has been laid in place by the European Union. 

Wall Street has predicted that a strong future is ahead as European stock markets started up pretty high, with US Stock futures rallying more than 1%. The Asian containment also had a good start, with MSCI’s index of shares outside Japan that are Asia-Pacific in nature rose to 0.9%. Nikkei, a Japanese firm rose 0.7% after Yoshihide Suga won in an election conducted by the ruling party to succeed Shinzo Abe. 

The Fear Regarding the Implementation of a Hurried Coronavirus Vaccine

AstraZeneca mentioned that they had resumed clinical trials in Britain for the coronavirus vaccine. This comes as pretty good news, as the clinical trials were the most advanced in the world, and their progress had been hindered by safety watchdogs. With the sell-out of U.S tech stocks, the restart of a coronavirus vaccine seems to have uplifted the sentiments of the world share markets. 

But there have been concerns regarding the trials. Michael hewson has mentioned that although the pharmaceutical company was working extremely hard and fast to create a vaccine at the earliest, it might not be the best decision. After all, there was a high risk of mistakes in trying to accelerate a process that usually took years. 

In other spheres, Nvidia Corp- an American chipmaker decided to purchase Arm- a UK-based designer of chips. The US conglomerate would buy the UK firm from SoftBank group for $40 billion. This would definitely shape the entire landscape for global semiconductor- bringing forth a gain of 1% in the tech sector of Europe. 

It has been six months since the World Health Organization officially declared that there was a pandemic ravaging the planet. Since that day, most of the global economies went into a state of recession with unemployment rising exponentially. This unexpected catastrophe led central banks all around the world to start initiating stimulus protocols.  

The Federal Reserve of the USA would hold a two-day meeting to discuss the policies. They would also be expected to discuss rates whilst debating on a prior announcement of inflation targeting.  With major changes coming forth in UK, and Japan, the Bank of England, and the Bank of Japan too would be announcing the policies on Thursday.
