Time now for an in-depth look at the global markets this afternoon.
And for that, I'm joined on the line by Dr. Yang Jun-sok, professor of economics at the Catholic University of Korea.
Professor Yang, thank you for making time today.
Thank you.
Last week we saw an almost 7 percent drop on the Dow, other Wall Street indices down by similar amounts, but then some of that was clawed back on Friday. Investors still worried about a second wave of the pandemic. What's happening in the global markets, and what's your outlook?

Korean stocks down today, also on concerns over the pandemic. But there's also North Korea's threat of military action. What's the story in the Korean markets?

Professor Yang, in the days ahead, business data from the Bank of Korea for the first quarter. That and what else is coming up this week?
