Market reaction

These comments don't seem to be having a significant impact on market sentiment. As of writing, major European equity indexes were up between 0.3% and 1%. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 futures are gaining 0.15% on the day, suggesting that Wall Street's main indexes could start the day slightly higher following Monday's sharp drop.
