Commodity prices as per the Commodity market news had a big gap down opening and traded under pressure crushed by a fresh surge in Treasury yields and US dollar index which sparked after data showed U.S. job openings rose more than expected in August in yet another sign of a resilient economy that suggests interest rates will be higher for longer.

U.S. dollar rose to a 10-month high against a basket of major peers after U.S. job openings data pointed to a still-tight labour market that could prompt the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates next month.

Crude oil was able to off from the day’s lows as Investors kept an eye on any OPEC-JMMC Meetings updates. Still, tight supplies pinned Brent futures 31% higher since this year’s low in June, as OPEC is expected to maintain previously announced output cuts as per the late commodity market news.

Earlier in September, Saudi Arabia and Russia announced they would extend the combined 1.3 million barrels-a-day output cuts until the end of the year.
