It was a week of two halves with the good work from the start of the week being undone in the second half as traders slipped into reverse gear on Thursday and Friday.

Confidence has been largely absent so far in 2009, with every attempted rally squashed before it really had chance to get going. There is a growing sense that this time round things are different, and this belief will only grow further, if markets can survive the next week or so without dropping too far below last Thursday’s low. written by Karen Yap It was a case of two steps forward and two steps back last week for world equity markets. Global equities were served a reminder of just how difficult bear markets can be. Traders are quick to grab whatever short term profits they have made, making it difficult for rallies to build momentum. Equities shot out of the starting gate in the early part of the week, largely due to a relief rally in the banking sector. The clear catalyst was the announcement from Barclays that it won’t be going to the market or government for more cash. This, more than anything strengthened investor’s confidence in Barclays and across the sector as a whole. However, as impressive as today’s performance is, the rally needs to be put in context. Shares in Barclay’s are still around 50% lower than they were just two months ago. written by Karen Yap It was a case of two steps forward and two steps back last week for world equity markets.

The Euro managed to end the slightly down against the dollar, but the pound plunged through the 1.5000 level for the first time since 2002.
