US Stocks Regain Ground To Close Higher

Shares stabilise on Wall Street and there are gains as Monday's rout seems to be over. As eyes turn to Asia to see if they follow suit we speak to the BBC's Karishma Vaswani in Singapore. How far were robots on the trading floor to blame for the sell-off? Szu Ping Chan reports. Elon Musk's latest SpaceX rocket, Falcon Heavy, has successfully launched from Cape Canaverel in Florida. We hear from Quartz's Tim Fernholz who was at the launch.

All this and more discussed with our two guests throughout the show: Andrew Peaple, Deputy Asia Finance Editor of the Wall Street Journal, in Hong Kong, and Nancy Marshall-Genzerin, Marketplace reporter in Washington.
