Commodities
• Iron ore futures rose 0.7% to US$96.10 a tonne.
• Oil prices tumbled after reports that OPEC+ is considering a 1m barrels a day reduction in Group output.
"OPEC+ will have an easy job next week, but oil prices won't catch a bid until energy traders are confident an aggressive reduction of output at around 1 million bpd will be delivered. Brent crude is poised to consolidate below the $90 level,” said Oanda senior market analyst, Ed Moya.
• Gold has been consolidating around the US$1,660 level as bond yields refuse to fall.
