Synopsis:

The commodities market today is driven by low US crude stockpiles and a weak dollar index. The 10-year yield fell to 4.16%, and the dollar index fell to 103.44. WTI crude oil rose 2.4% to $82.70/barrel, while gold eased at 0.2% to $2,462.85/ounce.

Top News and Events

  • Treasury Yields Steady: US Treasury yields remained mostly unchanged on Wednesday as investors evaluated the economy and future interest rates. The yield on the 10-year Treasury slipped by less than 1 basis point to 4.16%.

  • US Dollar Index Drops: The US Dollar Index Futures fell by 0.50% to 103.44, reflecting market uncertainty about future interest rate changes.

  • Oil Prices Surge Due to Lower Crude Stockpiles and Weak Dollar: WTI oil prices rose approximately 2% on Wednesday, driven by a larger-than-expected drop in US crude stockpiles and a weaker dollar, despite concerns about slower economic growth in China. Brent futures increased by 1.6% to $85.06 per barrel, while US WTI rose 2.4% to $82.70.

  • Gold Hits Record High on Rate Cut Hopes: Gold prices reached a new all-time high on Wednesday, supported by optimism about a potential interest rate cut from the US Federal Reserve in September and a weaker dollar. Spot gold eased about 0.2% to $2,462.85 per ounce at the close, after hitting a high of $2,482.29 earlier in the session.
