Comment: Oil prices were steady on Tuesday, holding around one-week highs after jumping over 3% the previous session as investors tempered expectations of an early return of oil exporter Iran to international crude markets. Still, the global recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is patchy, showing a mixed outlook for oil demand. Parts of Europe and the United States are recording fewer infections and deaths, prompting governments to ease restrictions, but in other areas such as India - the world's third-biggest oil importer - rates are still high.

Comment:  The dollar weakened in early European trade Tuesday, with Federal Reserve officials keen to stick to the recent mantra that inflationary pressures were temporary and the central bank’s ultra-easy monetary policies were here to stay. European Market is set to hit record highs as a billion-dollar takeover deal combining two of Germany's biggest property developers and soothing comments about inflation drove an upbeat mood among investors.
