Equities extend post-election rally

Global equities continued to celebrate the US election results, with European stocks joining the rally despite German Chancellor Olaf Scholz announcing potential snap elections.

And we also have Tim Gagie, Head of FX&PM Solutions Geneva, on today’s show talking about the US dollar, why he likes sterling, and the fundamentals behind this year's gold rally.
