US confidence seems to be building, whilst Europe is still in the doldrums. US equities have risen, perhaps helped by the hopes of a visit by President Xi later this year.

NAB’s Ray Attrill talks through the differences, which has also seen an increasing spread in yields across the Atlantic. The imminent government shutdown could have a lot to do with it.
