European markets were trading bullish, with investors outpacing the possible effects of the International Cyberattack of “WannaCry” virus, as well as the latest missile test in North Korea. In fact, the regional elections in Germany, as well as the prospects for an extension of the oil production cut by Russia and Saudi Arabia, contributed to the positive sentiment of the investors. An analysis by Bank of America Merrill Lynbch notes that investment in European equity markets has shown strong growth, but there is still room to recover further. In the US, the uncertainty that has recently surrounded the Trump Administration, particularly with regard to tax reform, has left investors with greater uncertainty.
