Andrew Wilson of Goldman Sachs’ Consumer and Investment Management Division explains how European markets have been reacting to the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. “European markets have been very much in the eye of the storm,” Wilson tells host Jake Siewert. “So the volatility that you will have witnessed in the U.S. has played out across European markets, whether that is in the fixed income, equity or currency markets, in the same way that we’ve seen in the U.S.  So the focus in on what policy responses are coming out of Europe, just as much as it is out of the U.S.”
