Domestic and International Events

  • Oil prices fell on Tuesday, extending nearly 2% losses in the previous session, as a stronger U.S. dollar and a flare-up in COVID-19 cases in China increased fears of slowing global demand.
  • The U.S. dollar rose for a fourth straight session on Monday as investors braced for high inflation data released this week, leading to expectations of continued aggressive monetary policy from the Federal Reserve.
  • COVID-19 cases in the world’s second-largest oil consumer China rose to their highest since August. Its services activity in September contracted for the first time in four months, as pandemic restrictions weighed.
