Let’s see what’s moving the market today in different countries.
Yesterday after the release of the poor retail data the US dollar price went up due to its safe-heaven status. EUR/USD, GBP/USD, AUD/USD – all dropped. Retail sales slumped by 8.7%, while only 8% decline was anticipated. It is the largest decrease in history. For comparison, this indicator fell by 2.8% during the crisis of 2008. That means that the coronavirus damage is terribly profound and long-standing.
Apple released the new IPhone SE, its first low-cost device for four years. And, by that, the company proved that it is still sustainable even amid the coronavirus and its factories in China are back to work. Perhaps the Apple’s stock will continue its steady way up.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel declared that the country starts to come back to the normal life. She will allow to reopen some small shops next week and schools - in May.

However, the Germany’s economy is still struggling from the virus damage. According to the economy ministry, the recession will last until summer, but it will rebound in the second half of the year.
