Today’s Hot Asset – Vodafone

Stocks in the U.S. look set to open the trading session moving slightly higher. Investors in the U.S. are extremely interested in investing in the equity markets as there are plenty of potential opportunities available. The news of some potential merger deals between some maker companies has sparked this reaction and as a result stocks values look set to open trading higher.

Stocks in Asia traded higher during the first trading session of the week. Investors in Asia had their first chance to react to Janet Yellens comment on Friday afternoon and it was her words that helped lift equity values. Stocks in Japan and Australia performed particularly well during this mornings trading session.

Stocks in Europe are currently still rising as the first session of the week nears its end. Investors in Europe have looked towards the equity markets for investment opportunities after witnessing the euro fall to a one year low against the U.S. dollar. This has provided many call options for binary options investors to take advantage of. Stocks within the communications sector have performed above average during today’s session so far.

Today’s hot asset is, Vodafone. As I mentioned earlier, stocks within the communications sector have been performing well today and Vodafone is just one example of this. There share price has risen 1.60% during the session so far today and more movement could very well take place before the final bell, which is why this is my hot asset for the day.
