Commodities stabilize for now, World markets rise

Hi guys! Just a quick report on the status of our favorite commodities. Let's hope these markets do not rise or fall too abruptly against us. :(

After the European leaders came forward to help the financial system, oil saw itself slip back above $80 a barrel. Analysts feel that even though there was a price rise in commodities, the rebound may be short-lived amid concerns about slowing demand. Crude oil for November delivery rose as much as $2.32, or 2.9 percent, to $83.51 a barrel in after-hours electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Gold went higher as the dollar slid against the euro :!: , and stock markets finally capped in gains :) . Gold was at $846.70 an ounce, up $15.90 from the New York close.

Cheers!

Barbie ;)
