OPEC on Tuesday raised its forecast for global oil demand next year and trimmed its forecast for growth in supply from the United States and other producers outside the wider OPEC+ group, pointing to a tighter market outlook. World oil demand will rise by 1.38 million barrels per day in 2026, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries said in a monthly report, up 100,000 bpd from the previous forecast. This year's expectation was left unchanged. Oil supply from countries outside the Declaration of Cooperation - the formal name for OPEC+ - will rise by about 630,000 barrels per...
The rise in silver prices could be attributed to a weaker US Dollar (USD) amid lower Treasury yields. A weaker dollar generally boosts demand for dollar-denominated commodities like silver, making it more attractive to buyers using other currencies. The US Dollar Index (DXY), which measures the value of the US Dollar against a basket of six major currencies, was trading around 103.80 with the 2-year and 10-year US Treasury yields at 4.17% and 4.31%, respectively, at the time of writing. Silver prices may remain volatile as traders also brace for the upcoming monetary policy decision from...
EUR/USD surged around the key resistance of 1.0900 during the European session on Monday. The major currency pair surged as the US dollar (USD) slumped amid rising uncertainty ahead of the US presidential election on Tuesday and the Federal Reserve's (Fed) monetary policy meeting on Thursday.

EUR/USD retraces its recent losses from the previous session, trading around 1.0880 during Asian hours on Monday. The pair's upside can be attributed to a softer US Dollar (USD) after the release of weaker-than-expected US October Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) data. However, uncertainty surrounding the US presidential election could drive safe-haven flows, potentially limiting the upside of the EUR/USD pair. On Friday, data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) indicated that October's NFP increased by only 12,000, following a revised September gain of 223,000 (down from 254,000), which...
