Stocks, oil, and risk currencies gained on Tuesday as the formal go-ahead for US President-elect Joe Biden to begin his transition burnished a November already boosted by Covid-19 vaccines.

The euro was gaining towards $1.19 again and the dollar index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of six major rivals, nudged down to 92.235. Gold continued to lose its shine too, falling to $1,826.3 an ounce having now dropped 10% this month. Brent crude futures rose 45 cents, or 1%, to $46.51 a barrel to add to a more than 20% surge this month.
