GLOBAL UPDATE
•
Commodities
rebounded
in
previous session, with oil and
metals markets staging their biggest
rallies in more than a week, as
investors became more hopeful the
so-called U.S. "fiscal cliff" can be
fixed before the year-end.
Copper futures in London jumped
as much as 2 percent, hitting a one-
month high, on belief that the fiscal
talks in Congress may ultimately
produce a deal. A weaker U.S.
currency also boosted demand from
holders of the euro for copper and
other
dollar-denominated
commodities.
The Thomson Reuters-Jefferies CRB
index, a global benchmark for
commodities, settled up 0.9
percent, with 14 of the 19 markets
it tracks in positive territory.
