 Hi Social Traders,

US and European equity markets strengthen while Asian equity markets dropped in April as volatilty in the equity and currency markets declined as the month ended.  Geopolitical events and risk was back on the radar for trader's calcuation with the US missle strike on Syria, April 6th, and the largest non-nuclear bomb ever used in combat on April 13th in Afganistan highlighted President Trump's willingness to use military force.  The Euro gapped higher about 2% when the market re-opened after the first round of the French elections took place on April 23rd.  French public opinion polls predicted correctly that Emmanual Macron and Marine Le Pen would be the final two candidates for the upcoming final round of the elections that will take place on May 7th with Macron currently leading the polls 60% versus Le Pen 40%.
