LONDON, May 28 (Reuters) – European shares rose for a fourth straight session on Thursday and the euro perched at a two-month high, as businesses returning to work and a 750 billion euro EU stimulus plan outweighed rising U.S.-China tensions.

Asian markets were subdued overnight after U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo warned Hong Kong no longer warranted special treatment under U.S. law, but there was no stopping Europe.

Traders diving back into the markets after Wednesday’s EU plan to prop up the bloc’s coronavirus-hit economies pushed the region-wide STOXX 600 index up more than 1% to a fresh 11-week high, led by a 2% jump in travel & leisure stocks .

By Mable K. Sexton 2 months ago

When the Covid-19 and economic crises hit, it was like the proverbial load of bricks landing on the travel industry. The share price of Booking Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:BKNG), a broker of hotel, flight and other travel services, dropped dramatically; the pessimism of shareholders was confirmed when its first-quarter 2020 financial results were released:

  • The value of first-quarter gross travel bookings fell 51% from a year earlier.
  • A net loss of $699 million as compared with net income of $765 million the year before.

By Thyagaraju Adinarayan

LONDON, June 1 (Reuters) – World stocks hovered near three-month highs and the dollar was flat on Monday as optimism over economies opening up again boosted risk appetite, despite worries over mass protests in the United States and unease over Washington’s standoff with Beijing.

Having risen a whopping 35% from a late March trough, stocks looked set to kick off June with more gains. The MSCI world stocks index has recovered two-thirds of the losses it incurred in the aftermath of the coronavirus outbreak.

Investors were also relieved that President Donald Trump left a trade deal with China intact despite moving to end Washington’s special
