European markets are expected to launch today's trading higher following strong gains made during the Asian session. German DAX is seen opening near the all-time high. Reflation trade is underway once again as US stimulus bill draws near. Second impeachment trial of Donald Trump will go to the US Senate this week but it should not have a major impact on the markets.
