Global News

▪ Global markets showed a mixed performance on Thursday as investors evaluated a range of economic indicators, including central bank rate decisions, inflation data and last-minute trade deal negotiations ahead of U.S. President Donald Trump's August 1 deadline.

▪ Oil prices edged lower as investors weighed the potential supply risks stemming from Trump's push for a swift resolution to the war in Ukraine, coupled with a surprise increase in U.S. crude stockpiles.
