Investam-HK: Stocks fell just after a day of dramatic rebound as market wraps up
Major indices fell for the first time in four days due to growing concern over coronavirus cases possible upturn.
According to New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, the daily positive cases rate in the city is back above 3% yet again which may have triggered the market’s fall.
Another reason that hit the declines is from shares of airlines companies that slid rapidly in today’s trading session. JetBlue and American airlines both fell by 4.4% and 4%, respectively. United is down for almost 4% while Southwest ended up 1.7% lower.
Meanwhile, investors are still weighing for positive output in the upcoming new fiscal package in the US which may affect the economy’s recovery in the next few months.
