Buoyant US data delays case for rate cuts

Stocks around the globe fell for a third day and bond yields rose, as traders trimmed their bets on rate cuts by the Fed after stronger-than-expected US retail sales data.

Carsten Menke, Head of Next Generation Research, gives an update on industrial metals and the Chinese economy. And Nicolas Jordan, CIO Strategy and Investment Analysis, talks to us about external shocks in markets and the outlook for the global economy.
