Market View 28th November 2023

View on market: Volatility Prevails, Market is searching for better value

Asian equities were trading mixed, mirroring the overnight losses of Wall Street counterparts and the drop in crude oil prices due to expectations that the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries would continue to reduce production. In a session abbreviated by holidays, U.S. treasuries under pressure as the explosive global bond advance this month appeared to be coming to an end, according to Bloomberg. On Monday, the Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500 indexes dropped by 0.27% and 0.20%, respectively. The decline in the Dow Jones Industrial Average was 0.16%. A glut of oil on hand ahead of the OPEC meeting on Thursday caused investors to fear that the cartel might decide to further curtail production. At $79.98 a barrel, Brent crude was up 0.74% from its last trade. An ounce of gold was trading at $2,017.33, up 0.16%.
