Stocks rise on White House reports of Trump's improving health

Stocks rise on White House reports of Trump's improving healthStocks rose on Monday as signs that President Donald Trump’s health was improving eased some of the political uncertainty caused by his coronavirus infection, which sent investors rushing for safety last week. Trump, 74, was flown to hospital for treatment for the coronavirus on Friday, but his doctors say he has responded well and could return to the White House on Monday. Overhanging the relief rally, however, are continued uncertainty about his condition and some concerns that Trump’s case could be more severe than public disclosures suggest.
