The Ibex (-0.3%) reduces its initial losses after rebounding from 9,000 points

The Ibex 35 (-0.36%; 9,085.30 points) has managed to react from 9,000 points and has limited its fall. All this after Wall Street ended on Tuesday with significant cuts of -0.8% on average and that in Asia the red numbers have also dominated. The Democrats have initiated a formal investigation for an impeachment procedure on Donald Trump due to his alleged pressures on the Ukrainian president to investigate the investments of the son of the Democratic presidential candidate, Joe Biden, in Ukraine. Although the New York Stock Exchange trades on Wednesday with slight increases following the optimism of the American president about a trade agreement with China.

Trump has already said that this whole process seems "garbage", but the truth is that the Democrats had been threatening to start it for a while and now, with the elections just around the corner in the US, they have finally decided to set it in motion.

This is the fourth American president who faces an 'impeachment'. The last was Clinton in 1998. So far none have been removed from office for this process, although Nixon did decide to resign. The political trial investigation will begin in the House of Representatives, where only a simple majority is needed to press charges (Democrats do not need Republican votes here).

"This could lead to a trial in the Senate, where a two-thirds majority is needed to condemn the president. Voting in the Senate would probably require around 20 Republicans to vote against their own party, what it does (the ' impeachment ') less likely unless new information reveals and confirms more serious failures by the president, "said Danske Bank experts.

The latest news is that a transcript of the conversation between Trump and Zelenskien has been published, in which the president asks the Ukrainian leader to investigate Joe Biden. "There is a lot of talk about Biden's son, about Biden stopping the instruction, and a lot of people want to find out about this, so anything he can do with the attorney general would be great," Trump said.
