Description
Subscribers soar…streaming giant Netflix blows away expectations in the first quarter by signing up more than 15m new customers, thanks to strong demand for franchises like ‘Tiger King’ amid the global lockdown. But, the stock pares gains in after-hours trading after the company warns the pandemic-related boost is unlikely to last later in the year. Luxury giant Kering reports a 23 per cent fall in Gucci sales in the first quarter and cautions that it is too early to judge the recovery in the Chinese market following the Covid-19 outbreak. The plunge in oil prices accelerates with Brent bearing the brunt of the selling, also pushing U.S. and Asian stock markets lower. And in the U.S, the Senate passes a $500bn rescue package aimed at aiding small firms, hospitals and ramping up testing for Coronavirus.
