In Asia, crude oil for October delivery is trading marginally higher at $85.72 per barrel. Yesterday, crude oil for October delivery
closed 2.6% or $2.26 lower, to end at $85.70 per barrel, amid worries over demand prospects, as concerns about Greek default
resurfaced strongly, after European policy-makers failed to announce a plan to provide additional bailout package for Greece
to avoid default.
Gold for immediate delivery is trading marginally higher today, at $1,781.85 per ounce. Gold for December delivery fell 2.0%
or $35.80, to settle at $1,778.90 per ounce yesterday, as the dollar rose against the major currencies, decreasing the demand
for the precious metal as a hedge against inflation.

At 0400 BST today, the GBP is trading marginally lower against the USD at $1.5668, slightly higher against the EUR at €1.1508,
and 0.3% down against the JPY at ¥ 119.846.
The EUR is trading 0.1% lower against the USD at $1.36132, amid worries over additional aid for Greece, and on speculation
that borrowing costs for countries in the region would rise, after Standard & Poor’s downgraded Italy’s credit rating.
The EUR is trading 0.3% lower against the JPY at ¥104.1, as persisting concerns about European economic recovery forced
investors to invest in safe haven assets.
The AUD is trading higher against the USD, after minutes from the latest Reserve Bank of Australia board meeting lowered the
chances of interest rate cuts.
Yesterday, the USD closed higher against the EUR, after a conference between officials from Greece, the European Union, IMF
and European Central Bank failed to decide additional aid for Greece, mounting concern about region’s debt crisis.
The CAD ended lower against the USD, on concerns that Greece might not receive an aid installment, dampening demand for
higher-yielding assets.
