GLOBAL MARKET ROUND UP

Comex Gold, which closed at $2,352.78 an ounce in the previous session, saw little change during Asian trading hours on Wednesday. Bond traders are growing increasingly bearish ahead of the consumer price index print due later today.

The precious metal has rallied more than 18% since mid-February, with the gains perplexing some onlookers because markets have trimmed bets on rate cuts due to strong US economic data. Swaps traders are now pricing around 65 basis points of reductions by the end of this year, less than what the central bank forecast last month.

Crude oil extended its fall after an industry report pointed to a gain in US crude stockpiles, although simmering tensions in the Middle East and ongoing OPEC+ curbs are expected to cap heavy losses. U.S. crude stocks climbed last week by 3.03 million barrels, according to the API report.

Copper and other industrial metals kept rising in the face of a constrained supply and hopes for better demand from China's major metal customers.

Asian stocks traded cautiously ahead of key inflation data that will provide fresh clues about the Federal Reserve’s policy outlook.
