Today’s Hot Asset – Google

Stocks in Asia traded traded slightly higher during this mornings trading session. Investors in Asia were buoyed by the overnight performance of equities within the U.S. markets. This immediately gave investors an appetite to invest in a few riskier assets during today’s session and this in-turn lead to stock prices rising.

Stocks in the U.S. rallied during yesterday evenings trading session. It was the first time in three consecutive days that the equity markets in the U.S. closed the day in positive figures. Investors did have to deal with some negative regional data as the session progressed. Instead of being deterred and looking for safer assets, investors immediately felt a sense of optimism and looked to future events. This allowed stock prices to continue to rise steadily throughout the session.

Stocks in Europe traded slightly lower during yesterday’s trading session. Investors witnessed the release of positive German economic data, however, this was not enough to allow investors to forget a day of dismal data released yesterday. This did create plenty of volatility as the session progressed which was great for binary options traders.

Today’s hot asset is, Google. There are rumors a rift surrounding the tech markets that Google will be the next company to release a TV set-top box. This news was immediately jumped on by investors and their price jumped 2.34% yesterday. I expect the movement to continue today, which is why this is my hot asset of the day.
