Global Markets
 

DJIA and NASDAQ Composite

US markets climbed on Wednesday, recovering from early declines on gains in energy and financial shares, but investors remained leery about the potential for another flare-up in the U.S.-China trade war. The Dow Jones Index closed at 26,036, up 258.20 points by 1.00%. The Standard & Poors 500 index closed at 2,888, up 18.78 points by 0.65%. The Nasdaq Composite Index closed at 7,857, up 29.94 points by 0.38%.

FTSE 100

UK markets finished higher on Wednesday, outperforming European peers as sterling slumped on news that Parliament would be prorogued for almost five weeks instead of the more typical one week, raising the odds of a 'no deal' Brexit, although it was still not seen as the most likely scenario by analysts, even if only by a scant margin. The FTSE 100 index closed at 7,115, up 25.13 points by 0.35%.

Gold futures turned lower on Wednesday, after the sharp rally in the past month to the highest levels since 2013, discouraged some potential buyers who are now waiting for a dip or some consolidation in prices in order to invest.

Base Metals

The three-month nickel price on the London Metal Exchange was higher at the close of trading on Wednesday August 28, breaching the $16,000 per tonne resistance level in a bout of short covering, while tightness in the metal’s forward curve meant that it continued to trade at record levels.

Crude Oil

Oil prices clung to gains on Thursday after official data confirmed a big drop in U.S. crude inventories, helping ease concerns about weakening demand, but worries about wider economic growth held prices in check.
