GLOBAL MARKETS ROUNDUP : 26.06.2014

GLOBAL MARKETS ROUNDUP
    * Asian shares swung higher on Thursday as weak U.S. growth
seemed to further delay the day when interest rates might rise,
pulling down bond yields globally and pushing investors toward
riskier assets in a desperate search for returns.
    * The dollar languished near one-month lows against a basket
of major currencies early on Thursday, having been knocked back
hard after revised U.S. growth figures for the first quarter
came in shockingly weak.
    * U.S. crude oil inched higher on Wednesday after news of a
U.S. government decision to permit exports of lightly refined
oil, while Brent oil fell as fears of supply cuts from Iraq
receded.
    * U.S. Treasuries prices rose on Wednesday after government
data showed the U.S. economy took a much worse bruising in early
2014 than previously calculated.
