Analyst View:

The US Capital Markets were all green on the first day of September 2021 riding on the back of improving employment figures and stints of economic recovery. The S & P closed the month of August with a win thereby stamping seven months consecutive straight with a lot of hope for investors in the coming period. The European market was however lackluster in its performance.
