Daily Market Update: US Stocks Drift as Dollar Slips, Oil Surges & Gold Hits Record High Amid Strong Jobs Data

US Stock markets drifted lower in trading yesterday as investors looked ahead to more key earnings updates from the big tech firms. The dollar slipped across the board whilst treasury yields had a mixed day after the ADP Jobs data came in much stronger than expected.

Oil prices rallied after US stockpile data fell unexpectedly, whilst Gold continued its meteoric rise to push to fresh record highs.

It is another massive day ahead for markets with top tier data due out across the trading sessions, including more jobs data and the PCE Index in the US and the Bank of Japan is set to update the market on its latest rate call.
