Dec 04, 2017, 11:48 AM

Markets have had a boost as US Senate passes the tax reforms bill. This is good for the Trump administration and US tax reforms have helped boost the markets. European markers are also performing very well. We have also seen Crude Oil fall, on the back of OPEC agreeing to keep production cuts for 2018. 

Unsurprisingly, Bitcoin keeps moving to the upside. Matt and Rob weigh up whether it is a positive or negative for Bitcoin to have regulation. Concluding with Matt Brown noting it is actually a positive for the Cryptocurrency. 

FTSE one to watch 

Sky: Disney have been looking into 21st century Fox. Fox already own 39% of Sky. It is likely if Disney do agree a deal, that they may take the Sky holding. Matt believes this will be interesting to see how Disney would move into this area. Stock is trading up 2%.
