Global stock markets fell today as worries over rising COVID-19 infections outweighed reports that U.S. political leaders finally agreed on a fresh economic relief package for struggling businesses and workers. 

Congress reached a deal Sunday on a $900 billion COVID-19 economic aid package that provides a temporary $300-a-week in extra unemployment benefits, $600 direct payments to most Americans and funding for schools, hospitals and renters facing eviction.
